	Gucci is the sumo robot created by Battlebots between Summer and Fall of 2018. It competed in the 2018 All-Japan Sumo Robotics Competition in Tokyo, Japan. It was the first of the next line of sumo bots in RoboJackets after the Pushi line. This guide is designed to walk you through our process for designing Gucci. We hope you can learn from our successes and failures when designing your own Sumo bot.		Gucci is the sumo robot created by Battlebots between Summer and Fall of 2018.

	At the competition we discovered that there were many parts of the metagame that we did not understand. Gucc$$$ is a partial update to Gucci. We did not feel that an entirely new bot needed to be designed and fabricated, but we made a few crucial changes that fixed some of the severe discrepancies between Gucci and the meta.

	We used a total of four [https://www.sparkfun.com/products/9453 line sensors], each mounted in a corner of the robot. The idea being that we would be able to detect not only if we hit the line, but in what orientation we are in relation to it. We decided to go with the analog version of the sensors because when the field gets dirty, the white lines become grey, which could cause non deterministic behavior.

 ===What issues did we find with our design?===
-Mechanically, we found that we did not have enough magnet force and our spring steel plow system was not very useful because the spring steel never bent enough to be a smooth plow. Also through shop testing, we found that ball casters were not the ideal choice for our skids. As mentioned before, the distance sensors also gave unreliable input. <u>Sensor logic was disabled during the entire tournament.<u/>
