Riptide

Riptide features swerve drive and an intake that collects the coral in order to score it in the reef. The intake then feeds the coral into our end effector, which can score it into any level of the reef. Our end effector can also collect algae and shoot it into the net. Our robot has variable degrees of shooting and uses Limelight to aim. Our auto can reach up to 4 coral, or 1 coral and 2 algae.

Whirlpool

Whirpool features swerve drive and an intake that flips out of the robot to pick up the orange note. The intake then feeds the note into our shooter by flipping back into the robot, and the shooter accepts and shoots the note. Our shooter has variable degrees of shooting and uses Limelight to aim for the speaker from any position on the field.
