From the rotating turret system, the way the robot spits out opposite colored balls, and that brilliant climbing mechanism. This robot is absolutely fantastic!
Probably the best bot I've seen. That is the first truly unique climb I've seen. A few rotaries, lots of twin hook ones, but using the truss to skip the high rung? Even without that absolute monster of a shooter, that's a good bot.
Crazy How accurate your shooter is, going in 10/10 regardless of launch position, excellent work, hoping to see u but never face u at the championships this year
Maybe this is just because I'm from FTC and it's more standard in FRC, but the way those mecanums are used on the intake to funnel the balls in is very cool
Your robot is insane! It can shoot in any direction and with such precision! I am so glad to have found this video. I want to build robots like these too and to compete at competitions, but I really don't know where to find such an opportunity in Germany. I am studying in my second year now and still haven't got to competitions like these... Maybe we don't have the cash for projects like these at german High Schools or Universities. xD
I am interested to see if shooting while moving will be viable, if they accelerate while they are about to shoot, to dodge another robot or just to angle towards another ball, they will likely miss. Incredibly cool to see though, hope it will be viable in high levels of play
only flaw I can see is that I don't think they can climb traversal without using the support structure, so if two teams have this mechanism they can't both climb
@@spidernh i highly doubt there will be more than 5 robots this year soing the same thing since it requires the full field in order to execute and even the best team sont bother on getting the full field mostof the time
Yes, we actually have a color sensor inside the conveyor, so when the ball is passed to the shooter, the decision of where to shoot it has already been made.
I want to know how that much precision you got please tell me about the green lights sensor you used as an eye, very interested to know..., as working on similar task of detecting a target.
Couple years late, this video is timeless haha The mechanism 1690 has used here to make their shooter rotate independently of their drive base is called a turret. It's effectively either a big bearing, or a bunch of small bearings holding a plate depending on the design, that is mounted to the bot somewhere and allows what's on top to spin. Then it's driven with a motor and either belt, chain, or gear drive. The most difficult parts of making a turret reliable and helpful in FRC are ensuring everything is rigid enough for accuracy, and also routing wires well enough so everything on the turret stays connected and powered through rotations. That's why you see sometimes the turret seems to do a full 360: it's software limited because they only wired it so much. Ultimately 1690 likely engineered the hell out of their turret and made one of the best examples, but like anything else in FRC doing it poorly is often worse than not doing it at all. If you want to build turrets, start in the off-season and learn how best to manage the pitfalls.
Yes, it actually does. The turret takes into account robot's position, heading, velocity and omega in order to determine the angle which will shoot the ball to the middle of the target.
@@noamprag9393do you position the shooter for the ball to have no speed at the tangential axis ? And adjust for speed on the radial axis with the angle of the hood Or do you have another way of doing that? I have been thinking about this for two years
I gotta ask what kits do you guys use and how do you make the robots, I have taken part in FLL and am beginning to take part in FTC but have never really seen too many places we can get kits and systems for FRC competitions
FRC has a few competition kits from Andy mark such as drivetrain, climber, etc. But most of the higher level teams tend to custom fabricate their parts.
There are no real "kits" for FRC. You design and build 90% of the robot yourself along with fabricating all the parts. If you're looking for the cheapest option, just take a look at the Robonauts Everybot; they make a new one for each season. It should cost you
@@sampierce7445 thanks. The thing is it’s kinda expensive cause I it’s probably just gonna be me (schools might not spend as much) and hence it’s kind of hard. I have worked on certain engineering and robotic projects such as the ones with NASA JPL so will try to use those experiences but still I know it’s gonna be tough, that’s the part I love the most
@@shivammathur1583 Most of these teams are actually just a bunch of adults "mentoring" high school students. However, the mentors design 99% of the bot so you'd be competing against adults with more funding and experience. Personally, I enjoy competing in smaller combat robotics competitions (sorta like battlebots) where you're able to build your own robot for
While that is true, if you reach out from the back side of your robot then you can go those 16cm plus the length into your frame perimiter. Clever solution, Good Work!!
Definitely build a big fancy one of these and make it look all shiny and robotic, and put it on NBA halftime courts and do light shows, and shoot tons of three pointers! Are you kidding me! Are you kidding me? Okay please, please pay me now. Just pay me now. I gave you the idea, you can pay me now looool
I'm a student on software team in Orbit, and I can confirm that 100% of the code was written by students. Our software mentor, Giora, is really really good at physics and logic, but doesn't code often. What we usually do is discuss the topics and then write all the code and test it ourselves. I think that the mentor-student relationship in Orbit is one of the best in FRC, because we learn together a lot and students get to do all the work. There are plenty of students like me and my friends in Orbit that stay really late hours and put a lot of effort in making Parker the best robot in the world.
The software aiming the shooter is incredible, and that climber, wow
Team 3255 is cool
The ability to shoot at different speeds at different distances at different angles is amazing software wise. Engineering is insane as well.
Another world class robot and performance from 1690 and representing the power of Israel!
Amazing as usual, mostly impressed with the third arm on the climb using the structure to stabilize the climb
This is the missing piece my team needs to get our climber working!
This is one of the most incredible robots I have ever seen in FRC. Best of luck to you all in competition
From the rotating turret system, the way the robot spits out opposite colored balls, and that brilliant climbing mechanism. This robot is absolutely fantastic!
Simply amazing... The color sensing ball ejection, effortless scoring, game changer... everyone knew you were going to climb. :)
Our media team was joking about getting a drone and we all kinda shoved the idea off...
Now I'm reconsidering cause those camera shots were fire.
It's not just a bloody awesome robot, the making of this video was a masterpiece. WOW.
Darn, even if i wanted too it would be really hard to find any flaws from that, absolutely incredible.
Probably the best bot I've seen. That is the first truly unique climb I've seen. A few rotaries, lots of twin hook ones, but using the truss to skip the high rung? Even without that absolute monster of a shooter, that's a good bot.
I have been watching this for the past 2 hours and can't think of a more optimized robot, this is ridiculous!!!

The swerve drive is just beautiful
Team orbit, amazing as always. Love the innovation. Keep it up and good luck this season.
both the speed and accuracy of the robot is mind blowing
Me currently vibing to the music while 1690 does their thing. 🙂
Best team outside of North America easily.

I mean, if this turns out to really be an issue, they could account for the robot’s current motion and acceleration in their algorithms.
You are my inspiration, just incredible
Such a simple and ingenious climber system, I love it
You guys never cease to impress me. Great reveal and robot! I wish you the best of luck this season.
Holy shit this is the best shooter I’ve seen so far
AMAZING robot, the idea of lining up with the truss was super smart!
Oh the reach is excellent!
wish you best of luck and hope to see you in world
Incredible bot! I'm especially interested in the shooter, do you have the code published somewhere?

Is there some sort of color sensor for the balls inside the indexer or is the distinction done manually?
Yes, we actually have a color sensor inside the conveyor, so when the ball is passed to the shooter, the decision of where to shoot it has already been made.
so good. Amazing job.
Nice work!!! good luck.
Amazing robot, looking forward to your performance this year
Agreed!

This is so cool!
תשאירו קצת בחורות גם לנו דאמנ
that just honestly looks incredible, and functions amazingly well! is that 180 degree or 360 degree motion for the shooter?
about 400 degrees
Thanks for the clarification
We almost named out Charged Up bot "Parker"
Parker were you in Israel last year? :D
This is crazy, that climber is fire
Hi, I’m joining the robotics team in America California Modesto beyer high school this year. Hope to make something cool like this
Cool stuff guys.
Great, now get it in the battlebox.
No but jokes aside that's a beautiful machine
I didn't know you could skip a bar. I knew you could start on the second that's what we are doing, but skipping entirely??
אני אשמח לדעת איך עשיתם את הצריח הזה
How do you guys shoot while moving?
Math
Love the robot and the Israel Flag.

Impressive vision algorithm

Are you climbing from bar 2 to bar 4? That's illegal isn't it? The rules say you can only skip bar 1. Very Impressive all around though, good luck!
It is legal if u don't get out of the max hight
@@עמיתכרמיקיבלביץ I think the rule states that you cannot extend beyond 16" past your perimeters frame
