DECODE 2025-2026 Robot Details
Meet our 2025-2026 robot! Take a look at the parts, systems, and mechanisms that helped us shoot artifacts into goals for points in the DECODE Season.
Our transfer system uses belt-driven GoBILDA Gecko Wheels to move game pieces from the intake directly to the shooter. An active intake design lets balls flow continuously for faster scoring, and a stopper controls when each ball enters the shooter.
Our shooter uses two motors on a single flywheel with a double belt system for consistent RPM and power. A 45° ramp helps guide and speed up game pieces, while an added flywheel weight improves stability for long-range shots. A polyurethane longboard wheel provides strong grip for consistent shooting.
Our intake uses belt-driven GoBILDA Gecko Wheels powered by a 1150 RPM motor to collect and move game pieces smoothly. Andymark compliant wheels, along with a curved ramp and guiding wedges, help funnel pieces into the robot for reliable transfer.
