2016

General Lee

 

General Lee was our robot to address the 2016 Stronghold game.

 

Purpose


The Purpose of the 2016 Stronghold game was to make a robot that could address all the obstacles presented in the game such as the Rough Terrain, Sally Port, Cheval De Frise, Moat, Drawbridge, and the Rock Wall. When the robot would pass over one of the many obstacles they would go to the tower and shoot the ball in either the high goal or low goal. Another way to score points was to disarm all the obstacles by going over them a certain amount of times.

 

Objective


We focused on taking out the defenses of the Outer Works, defending the high goal, and shooting into the low goal. It could address all the obstacles other than scaling the tower. Our intake system allows us to get a ball wedged between rollers allowing us to shoot for the low goal. We developed a way to block the high goal when we need to defend.
