Sidekick: RoboRodentia 2006 Entry
Front Left to Right: Primary Robot, Secondary Robot
Mechanical Engineering
The team working on this project created two robots that could communicate to each other, with one robot passing balls and the other firing them. The primary robot's critical functions include gathering balls into it’s central trough, pushing them toward the firing mechanism built into one end and firing over to the other side. It also is required to move back and forth along the front side of the course. The secondary robot's function was to push balls toward the front of the course for the primary robot to gather.
