Arm bot

Anybody thinking about building an arm bot? My teammates and I were talking about it, then I realized it could maybe be viable lol, though I would never do it. If anyone wants to do it I will help as much as you want since like… it’s funny as heck

Can you explain what an arm bot is and what it will do?

Imagine an arm. It’s a literal arm on wheels that picks up the disc and throws it like a person would. It can use pnuematics for the hand, motors for the wrist and everything else. Speed ratio probably on the wrist

Honestly probably not a viable robot for the competition, however it sounds like a very fun side project.

I do not care. I won’t do it because I’m with the turret sub community. However, it would be awesome to go to worlds and see an arm bot

Interesting. I did have that idea especially when someone mentioned clay pigeon throwers. I do not believe it will be viable because of how it might be built.

Put the arm on a turret
