Kelex
Description
Our 2019 Robot "Kelex" was created to play the FRC 2019 game "Deep Space". Kelex was designed to pick up kickballs, and "hatch panels", a thin plastic disc, and place them at different elevations on the field. Kelex was also designed to climb a 1.5 foot platform at the end of a match.
