Design

  • Made a catapult prototype to use
  • Shooter will most likely be able to rotate to follow the camera allowing the robot to shoot from several places
  • Will need to create something to pick up balls, shooter will reset to normal and the ball will be loaded in and then fired
  • Tires can be filled with sand to lower the center of gravity to keep it more stable
  • Prototype catapult works but very large so may not fit under the low bar
  • Chasis dimension 24.5 by 35.5
  • 10″ tires
  • Catapult should be able to be lowered into the robot to clear the low bar
  • Bumper will be as high as possible
