Design Size- 36x40x24" (Bumper must fit inside this space)

Intake- Looking to use Surgical Tubing tied around several sets of rollers to bring a ball (fuel) into the bot. The Intake will be placed on a long side of the bot. We're looking to have both the fuel intake and the gear intake be on the front of the bot. A spring-loaded system to quickly unload the gear.

Electronics- Arranged onto a panel and placed vertically over to one short side of the bot over top of a battery that rests in between two swerve modules or lie flat.

Climber- Two current concepts for a climber that need to be prototype. (Further specifics of each concept were not discussed)

Shooter- A turret design was mentioned, but will not have 360 degrees of freedom. The wheel in the shooter will be spinning constantly the whole match. Fuel may be launched at a high angle in order to get over possible defenders, but may see a decrease in rate of fire. Shooting team will work on adjusting flight path and spin of the ball.

Power- The design is beginning to run into problems in terms of power distribution with the inclusion of a turreted shooter.

Hopper- From 3-day robot build videos, Passive loading systems jammed the shooter. A manual feed must be considered.
