Our RobotOur robot is named ACLTN - Or short for All Coaches Love This Name. To support our strategy (mentioned in the home page), we built a balanced robot with four wheels but the two wheels in the front are the driving ones powered by the DC motor. We have two omni wheels in the back which helps the robot turn in any direction. We brainstormed ideas, and we built a prototype and then converted our ideas and the prototype into our physical design. We are aiming more for consistency and meeting our point goals so speed was not a major factor in our design - so, we have two front wheels connected to the motor using the gears with one to one ratio.
