Tank Tracks
Our robot features custom-designed, soft tank tracks that deliver exceptional traction across all terrains and can even traverse obstacles. These tracks function like airless tires, offering durability, quiet operation, and a smooth ride without sacrificing speed. This is particularly innovative, as tank tracks are typically known for slow-speed traction, while wheels are preferred for speed. However, our design combines the best of both worlds. Crafted with a unique blend of materials and structural design, our tracks ensure a strong, reliable grip on any surface.
Bumper layer
The robot's body is constructed from two seamlessly bonded materials—polycarbonate for structural strength and soft TPE overmold for impact absorption. This design makes the robot as tough as a power tool, requiring no delicate handling. Since kids tend to break things, this feature is especially valuable in classroom settings (or even at home), giving us a distinct advantage over competitors. The soft overmold not only cushions impacts during collisions with other robots or objects but also prevents damage to floors and furniture by minimizing bumps and scratches.
Superior motors
Superior motors: The robot is equipped with two high-performance coreless geared motors, which are exceptionally agile, making gameplay more responsive and dynamic. The robot's arm is driven by a powerful, fast servo motor capable of effortlessly lifting opponents into the air.
Metal fasteners
For ease of assembly and reliable connections, the frame features metal threaded inserts. Assembly is made even simpler with a super magnetic screwdriver that securely holds bolts in place, preventing them from falling off during the process. Metal fasteners inspire a feeling of real engineering while also achieving high mechanical ruggedness.
User-friendly assembly
The goal of building the robot yourself is to educate and inspire the builder about its inner workings. This approach encourages users to see the robot not just as a toy, but as a stepping stone to a hands-on learning experience that fosters a DIY mindset. An interactive self-check algorithm makes sure the robot is assembled correctly and that all functions operate properly.
