Two alliances of three teams have to shoot foam rings called notes into their alliance's speaker and amp. The speaker is very tall, and harder to shoot notes into, while the amp is much lower, and easier to shoot notes into. In the final 20 seconds of the match, robots need to climb on a structure called the stage.
We used a swerve drivetrain consisting of 4 SDS Mk4 modules which enabled us to navigate the field with ease.
Our intake for picking up notes went over the bumper. It used pneumatics to move between the inside of the robot and the outside of the frame. It used spinning compliant wheels to pickup notes.
When our intake picked up notes, the notes went into our note transport, which used polycord to move the notes into our shooter.
Our shooter consists of two flywheels, capable of shooting notes into the speaker and the amp. It is aimed with a lead screw, allowing the shooter to shoot at any angle.
To climb onto the stage, we had a two stage climber with two hooks. Each hook could be driven independently for full control over how the robot climbed.
We used a swerve drivetrain for the first time in over a decade!
