TEAM STRATEGY AND MACHINE CONCEPT

Our machine has front pincers to gather balls on the ground, two front wheels, two ball casters at the back for good maneuverability, a t-arm that extends vertically to knock off the red balls on the tower perches, and a deployable restraint that will anchor itself onto the opponent’s goal. This anchor will prevent the other teams from scoring points in their goal. Our machine will first gather the two yellow balls located next to our goal then proceed to the tower where it will knock off the red balls from the higher perches. It will collect all of these balls in the front pincers, then will head back and drop them in our goal. Afterwards we will drive to the goal where the opponent is trying to score, position ourselves on top of it, and then deploy our anchor. This will prevent the other team from scoring.
