DEWBOT VII's arm was developed to meet the following key strategic objectives:

  1. Elevate possessed Logo Pieces to score at all levels - esp. top - NEED
  2. Quickly and reliably score Logo Pieces on Scoring Grid - NEED
  3. Disengage cleanly from Logo Piece & Tower after scoring - NEED
  4. Assure Logo Piece orientation to facilitate scoring - NEED
  5. Align Logo Piece with target - z (height) - NEED
  6. Securely possess inflated Logo Pieces & Ubertubes - NEED
  7. Pick inflated Logo Pieces off field - NEED
  8. Load inflated Logo Pieces at Feeder Station - NEED
  9. Close claw when Logo Piece is at correct penetration - WANT
  10. Ubertube manually loadable with robot powered-down - NEED

And a couple of game constraints

  1. Arm must be manually movable with robot powered down - NEED
  2. Arm must be within starting envelope at beginning of match - NEED
  3. In play, arm may not break the 84" cylinder limits - NEED
