Robot Iteration 3
Thwackey©
Designed, built, and iterated throughout the season.
Our robot represents the third iteration of our design process, building on lessons learned from earlier prototypes to maximize speed and reliability. It features a spindexer capable of fast cycling, with the added potential for color sorting to support advanced game strategy. Designed for versatility, the robot can burst shoot accurately from both close and long range, adapting to different field positions. Staying true to our name, the Rubber Bandits, the robot uses a rubber band–powered intake that is simple, effective, and consistent.
