Introducing: Atlas.

Atlas, team 2854’s 15th robot, was built to compete in FRC 2024’s game Crescendo. Through collaboration, communication, and innovation, students are empowered to learn skills and combine their ideas and innovations with engineering and design, while practicing gracious professionalism. The game is themed around music, involving two alliances consisting of three teams collaborating and competing with each other to perform various tasks, including scoring foam rings, called Notes, into goals at the end of the field. At the end of the 2 minute matches, the objective is for the robots to climb on metal chains on the stage to earn additional points. The game’s kickoff event occurred on January 6, 2024.

AUTONOMOUS

Our autonomous strategy consists of shooting a preloaded note into the speaker and backing up to collect more. Throughout the year, we've spent countless hours developing consistent 2 note, 3 note, 4 note, and even five note autos.

TELEOPERATED

Our robot has the ability to pick up notes from both the ground and source. By using a swerve drive train, we are able to skillfully manuever around obstacles and use a trained neural network to precisely aim and shoot into the speaker while in motion.

ENDGAME

Our endgame strategy is to be able to climb onto the stage with our polycarb climbers. We utilize our arm system to pull the robot up onto the chains.
