FIRST Robotics Competition

Game

In 2007, the game was Rack 'n' Roll.

Robots

This year's robot was Thunderhorse. It was one of the two robots built in the beginning of the season, but by the early weeks Thunderhorse was the that was chosen to be continued to work on. In the beginning, it was created by Keefer Dunn and Patrick Harrington. Our highly effective manipulator and our secret, unobtainium, seem to make this robot very effective overall.

The team also attempted to build another robot, named the Nimble Gimbal, but due to the complexity of the design the robot was not able to be built in time for the robot to be finalized for the competition.

Field Crew

Driver: Michael Strain
Manipulator Driver: Patrick Harrington
Coach: Jeannie Putnam
Human Player: Sunny Gupta

Regionals

In 2007, we only attended the Peachtree Regional.

Peachtree Regional

At the Peachtree Regional the Robolions were one of the first teams to score all the way around the game scoring element ending a match with a total of 256 points (the highest score of the event).

The team made it all the way to the semi-finals, but due to our opponents’ defensive tactics, our alliance of 1746 and 1057 lost.

The team's final ranking was 6th out of 46, with a win-loss-tie ratio of 6-2-0.<ref>Official FIRST 2007 Peachtree Ranking</ref>

On June 24th, 2007 the team was invited to have a demo of the robot at the "International Society for Technology in Education" in Atlanta along with several other Georgia teams. The team drove the robot on a replica Rack 'n Roll field while talking to teachers of high school and middle school about incorporating robotics into the curriculum.
