Front

What is a 4-Bar robotic arm?

Back

A type of robotic arm that creates a small arc while lifting objects and can keep objects level.

Front

How many points is a stack of 2 Buckyballs on a ring worth?

Back

2 points.

Front

What is a robotic arm?

Back

A mechanism that functions similarly to a human arm, used to pick up, move, and transport objects.

Front

What is NOT a consideration when designing an effective robotic arm?

Back

The color of the object it is meant to move.

Front

What is the duration of each match in the Stacked Up Challenge?

Back

Each match is 60 seconds long.

Front

What happens to Buckyballs that fall off a stack during the match?

Back

They will not count towards your final score.

Front

What is the purpose of a robotic arm?

Back

To assist in picking up, moving, and transporting objects.

Front

What is the significance of stability in robotic arm design?

Back

Stability ensures that the arm can effectively lift and transport objects without tipping over.

Front

What does it mean for a robotic arm to remain level?

Back

It means the arm maintains a horizontal position while lifting objects.

Front

What is the role of a suction-based gripper in robotics?

Back

To pick up and transport objects using suction.
