  • To emphasize how good Gluten Free (Steven & Peter) was, they were literally a team of 2, while most teams had tens of members. They had a robot during the Skystone season, that quite literally had an almost perfect autonomous period, which was thought to be impossible. They are legends of the FTC robotics world.

This video also really took me back as well, from receiving your first parts, to driving it for the first time, there just isn't a feeling like it. Best of luck on the competition, the bot looks fantastic!

    • One of the best parts of those lower weight competitions is teams seem to be more experimental at times down there and try things out. It's no coincidence that some of the successful modern heavyweights have basically been developed from there, notably HUGE and Sawblaze used smaller scale testbeds (The smaller scale ones being Huge and Megatron respectively.)

    • I certainly do. I’ve been studying robotics off and on ever since I first read Asimov’s robot stories, and have been dissatisfied with Robot Wars showing us remote controlled machines with zero autonomy. Even achieving partial effective autonomy is astonishing. Eventually it will get to the point where robots are wheeled into the arena, turned on remotely, and fight with no input at all other than a remote kill switch. I get the feeling that that point is a lot closer than anyone thinks right now.

  • I would love to see more autonomous bots, especially in the Meltybrain build style. To have a bot that could instantly retract its weapon to avoid flying through the ring, would be game changing. And run off lidar since it’s already spinning massively fast. Also all of the weight could be spent on drive motors (since they’re also technically weapon motors) and batteries to have a much better weight to weapon ratio. I forget the name of the white meltybrain bot in NHRL making waves but this style of bot will be a force to reckon with in the future.

  • Welcome to the wonderful world of combat robotics you guys! Its absolutely great to see you guys in the space and wishing you all the best in the competition. If you guys want to try out some smaller weight classes (can be a challenge in and of themselves and cheaper), would love to see you guys down at some Kilobots competitions (3lb, 1lb, 150g) either in Alberta or Saskatchewan! Edit: Also recognized from the beginning and love your shot at trying to cancel out the gyroscopic procession, as even at the smaller weight classes it can be quite the problem, and its something I would love to see more of!

  • That is an interesting concept and certainly an interesting development for the build! As a Battlebots fan it's certainly quite a cool robot, and the twin counter-rotating verts could do some serious damage, especially if the drives are independent. I am quite concerned about that armor: those wedges look quite a bit thinner than what you often see on bots, which is often enough slabs of titanium or AR500 thick enough to be all but bulletproof to small arms - and even armor that thick we've seen defeated by sufficiently energetic weapons. Best of luck in your fights, and don't pull a Fusion!

  • It’s nice to see easily one of the biggest KZheadrs helping a new team. So Obritron for me anyway and a few others has been described as a modern day counter revolution, ( if you familiar enough with the show.) twin vertical discs cancel out the gyro effect and you can drive normally with both weapons at maximum speed. The only thing is if there’s another robot who has a very long, and heavy weapon it could spell trouble very quickly, in their case Team robogym with their new under/overcutter spinner and flamethrower, Roundhouse.

And I can't wait to see how useful the AI component turns out to be. I often dream about next level BattleBots that fight autonomously. I also dream of a racing competition where all the race cars are autonomous. One day.

    • I mean to me the focus is the bot and the weapon. Would be interesting to see two AI bots go at it.

  • BB will make another category for AI fights. The most incredible thing I've watched recently, is bots that solve mazes. To make things hard, the runs are timed, and there are breaks in the walls. The bots figure out the best path, which can be diagonal. I'm sure there will be a lot of tweaking to the software as you move forward with the battles.

    • @@phantominway The Jaws of Death lol. The Jaws of Life used by Fire and Rescue gave me the idea. The design was a set of hydraulic jaws on all 4 sides with a motor assist to load a spring that would snap it closed on the other bots with super speed and snaring force, then the hydraulics would have taken over and cut their machines right in half like butter every time. The bottom jaw was designed to be like a ramp so it could slide under anything, and it could of course also go into a 360 spin so the 4 sets of jaws could bash the shit out of them until the most opportune time to bit the fuckers in half.
