Robot Name: Rabies Dimensions (LxWxH): 200cm x 140cm x 70cm Shape: Rear wedge and front scoop, with lots of long spikes on each side made from 25mm HDPE, with Titanium tips. Colour: No paint on this robot, but it has been deliberately built in order to look like the metal has rust on it. Weight: ~300kg Drive: 4 x LEM200s running at 60v, powered by a load of NiCad batteries. Top Speed: Fast! ;D Wheels: The robot has 4 wheels, each 300mm in diameter, made entirely out of rubber. Armour: The sides of the robot are 25mm HDPE, the wedge is 5mm Hardox, the scoop is 7mm Hardox and the wedge extender on the back is 6mm Titanium/Vanadium alloy. Weapon: The robot has a unique weaponry system which allows it to dump robots out of the arena. The front scoop is split in two horizontally, creating a top jaw and a bottom jaw. These are powered by low pressure pneumatics running at 750PSI. If a robot drives into the scoop, the jaws close (can close fully in under a second) and the second part of the weaponry comes into play: the entire scoop is fitted onto a hydraulic arm which runs down the length of the robot. The arm is powered by 2 100mm x 40mm rams, with a 4kg hydraulic tank which stores the fluid. The robot has 2 Vivoil pumps. The arm can lift up to 1 metre in the air, and can be used to deposit robots OOTA or into the pit when used on conjunction with the jaws. Turning Circle: 0m Ground Clearance: 0mm at front and rear, 2cm on sides. Srimech: The hydraulic arm self rights the robot gracefully ;D
