Base

This year's base is small, but it is still able to support the other subsystems. The 11" wheels help with ensuring a low center of gravity and keeping the robot balanced.

Pulley

The pulley system is a primary function of Hephaestus ISS. This efficient system can easily perform various tasks by using this arm along with other mechanisms. The pulley uses a motor, 1/2 inch spindle, and string to move up and down.

End Effector

The End Effector subsystem carries the factoids and deposits them in the appropriate locations. It is an important factor in our design.
