We competed in the INTO THE DEEP℠ presented by RTX© competition season, where we won various awards, qualified for Regionals, and were on the winning alliance at the Louisiana State Championship. Even though we did not go to worlds, we accomplished so much in our rookie year.
Our robot had a holonomic drivetrain ideal for required tasks and maneuverability. We bought a kit for our drivetrain for simplicity purposes and because this was our rookie year.
Our robot's intake included two parts, two wheels and the grucket. The wheels spun to take in pieces to pass to the grucket. The grucket, a combination of the words grip and bucket, was a bucket with a grip to grab and keep grip of pieces recieved by the two-wheel intake.
We also added other features, such as 3d-printed hooks to allow us to climb, wheel covers to protect the wheels from getting damaged, lights to signal the drivers of when a piece was taken into the intake, and color sensors to tell what color pieces were entering the intake.
We dedicated this season to one of our founding teammates, Jeremiah Bivins. Find out more here!
