UNIQUE: Our drivetrain is a custom-designed parallel plate design, made of CNC-Machined aluminum plates

VERSATILE: Thin enough to go around barriers, but also capable of going over

MANUEVERABLE: Mecanum wheels allow simultaneous translation and rotation in all directions.

FLUID: With rollers on the side of the drivetrain, it's able to safely run against walls enabling smooth, fluid motion

INNOVATIVE: Cable-pulley system, similar to prosthetic hands, retracts odometry to prevent damage when crossing barriers.

VERSATILE: dual-intakes powered by a single motor, so the robot functions equally when scoring in both Alliance and Shared Hubs.

FAST: high RPM flexible tubing creates high collection speed and minimalistic side wall design enables margin for error.

CLEAR-CUT: To transfer freight to the deposit, the intake simply reverses direction and spits it out, taking just 400 milliseconds

SECURE: 10+ Iterations of transfer systems enable 99.7% reliability for transferring freight to the deposit.

INTELLIGENT: A force sensor detects the presence of freight;  a magnetic sensor detects when the intake has successfully lifted; a weigth sensor detects when freight has successfully transferred.

EFFICIENT: robot doesn't need to move to the shipping hub (it can just drive against the wall) to score freight

FAST: 5 feet of linear extension moving at 100 in./sec. (0.5 seconds full extension) powered by pulley system

VERSATILE AND CONTROLLABLE: Entire linear slide system rotates on a turn-table enabling 3D control of deposit bucket

COHERENT AND MULTI-PURPOSE DESIGN: efficient scoring in shared hub & alliance hub, and we have the extemely rare but high point-value ability of delivering and scoring ducks in endgame
