Anyone know about this?
« on: September 18, 2008, 05:53:42 PM »
Went searching for bot ideas today, mainly ones with Mecanum wheels. I ended up finding Root Canal, which for those who don't know is made by the guy who did Tazbot, it's an omni-drive with a saw. But I found another bot on that site, Gearcrow, one that is apparently being covered up, all there is is a pic:


Anyone know about this thing? It looks like a walker wedge, but WTF?
Avoid the beam and you won't get hit!

Not a wedge, a Diesector-like clamp... on a walker...

Looks extremely cool, but I feel it can lose easily against a bot with a strong drive train.
