From workshop inception to battlefield triumphs, delve into Bipolariti's story, celebrating the creativity and ingenuity behind its creation.

Competitions

UGA Spring Smash 2.0 - 3lb

• Results: Win/Loss: 1/1
  • Bracket Style: Single Elimination
    • Win against Finished Robot (Auburn Robotics Club)
      • Finished robot showcased a horizontal undercutter. Their robot flipped Bipolariti upside down, and entangled its weapon in Bipolariti's "self-righting" hoops. After the unstick, both robots' weapon belts fell off. Bipolariti's driver reamined in better shape than Finished Robot's, leading to a win.
      • Had Finished Robot not gone in for the second hit after they flipped Bipolariti, they never would have entagled themselves and failed their weapon system. Bipolariti won the match by unintentional entanglement.
    • Loss against SnowStorm (TheNoLives)
      • SnowStorm was a Peter Bar Kit bot using a vertical disk spinnter. Their robot quickly flipped Bipolariti twice, immediately ending the match.
      • Bipolariti left the match nearly unscathed. Its lack of invertibility or self-righting ability was absolutely and supremely detrimental. Not only in that fight, but many others.

Replace "https://i.ibb.co/NVmCcDS/20240314-213036.jpg" with the direct URL of your image file. After this change, the image should display directly on the page.

User what is the direct url iamge ChatGPT The direct URL of an image is the specific web address that directly points to the image file itself. In your case, you provided the URL https://i.ibb.co/NVmCcDS/20240314-213036.jpg, which is likely the URL of the webpage displaying the image rather than the direct URL of the image file.

To obtain the direct URL of the image file, you typically need to right-click on the image and select an option like "Copy image address" or "Copy image URL" depending on your web browser. This will give you the direct URL of the image file, which you can then use in the <img> tag to display the image directly on your webpage.

Once you have the direct URL of the image file, replace "https://i.ibb.co/NVmCcDS/20240314-213036.jpg" with the actual direct URL in the <img> tag. After this change, the image should display directly on the page. If you're having trouble obtaining the direct URL, feel free to provide more details, and I can assist you further.

User how to get the direct url image ChatGPT To get the direct URL of an image, you'll typically follow these steps using a web browser:

Visit the Webpage: Go to the webpage where the image is located.

Right-Click on the Image: Once you've located the image you want, right-click on it. This will bring up a context menu.

Copy Image Address/URL: In the context menu, look for an option that says "Copy image address" or "Copy image URL" (the wording may vary depending on your browser). Click on this option to copy the direct URL of the image to your clipboard.

Paste the URL: Now, you can paste the URL into your HTML code where you want to display the image.

Following these steps should allow you to obtain the direct URL of the image, which you can then use in your HTML code to display the image directly on your webpage. If you have any further questions or encounter any difficulties, feel free to ask!

User 8.(3 pts) Bonus #1 Assume you are creating a new unchecked exception, called NewException. You want to create a method, named m1, that takes in either an instance of NewException, any subclasses of NewException, or any other exceptions that the Java compiler will not worry about at compile-time. What is the correct method header definition? 1 public void <T extends Throwable> m1 (T someException) ... 2 public void <T extends RuntimeException> m1 (T someException) ... 3 public void <T extends NewException> m1 (T someException) ... 4 public void <T extends Exception> m1 (T someException) .. ChatGPT The correct method header definition for creating a method named m1 that takes in either an instance of NewException, any subclasses of NewException, or any other exceptions that the Java compiler will not worry about at compile-time is:

java Copy code 4 public void <T extends Exception> m1 (T someException) ... Option 4 specifies that the method m1 accepts any subclass of Exception, which includes NewException and any other unchecked or checked exceptions.

User

or any other exceptions that the Java compiler will not

worry about at compile-time. ChatGPT Apologies for misunderstanding your question earlier. Considering that the method should accept any exception that the Java compiler will not worry about at compile-time, the correct method header definition would be:

java Copy code 2 public void <T extends RuntimeException> m1 (T someException) ... Option 2 specifies that the method m1 accepts any subclass of RuntimeException, including NewException and other unchecked exceptions. These exceptions are not checked at compile-time, meaning the compiler will not enforce the method to handle or declare them. Therefore, this option is suitable for your requirement.

User give me a word that means not strong and not intimidating but put in the cotezt of a fight deadly

3 / 3

ChatGPT A word that fits the context of a deadly fight and means "not strong" or "not intimidating" could be "vulnerable." In the context of a fight, it suggests a lack of strength or defense, making one susceptible to harm or defeat.

  • Wide and narrow horizontal wheel base made steering difficult. Turning was extremely sensitive, and consistently driving straight forward was nearly impossible.

• A Wide rectangular bottom plate held the entire machine together. After weight saving, the center of the rectagular base, was concerningly thin, making it vulnerable to being snapped in half.

• A wide rectangular bottom plate held the entire machine together. After weight saving, the center of the rectangular base was concerningly thin, making it vulnerable to snapping in half.

Good aspects

• Bipolariti's speed rivaled those of top competitive 3lb robots. Although steering was difficult, with enough practice, Bipolariti's driver could out-maneuver many of its opponents.
• Single-toothed 1/2 inch AR-500 weapon disk. Handled many head-on collisions with other vertical and horizontal spinners exceptionally.
• 3D-printed TPU (thermoplastic polyurethane) plastic armor allowed for realtively easy replacement and adjustment.

Changes/Improvements

• Attempted to solve Bipolariti's self-righting issue with strips of LDPE (low density polyethylene) plastic that would roll the bot onto its wheels when Bipolariti eventually flipped. However, even after heat treatment the plastic was too flexible and easily collasped, proving insufficient and inadequate.
