For this project, each team was given some basic parts and a gearbox, and our task was to design the mechanisms which with this robot would walk. We lasercut the acrylic gears to have a mechanical advantage, and also designed the legs to have great efficiency while climbing the hills in the race course.

​

We ended up finishing in the top two out of all the teams! You can view a short clip of part of our run here: https://youtu.be/hgU-70wlYpU. Note that we were allowed one touch per run to keep the robot going.
