Overview

BlitzCreek finished strongly defining 2026 as a year of continuous improvement. Early robot behaviors let to a redesign and rebuild of the shooting and indexing systems that dramatically increased the performance level of the robot. Successful implementations of vision and automatic motion software took the autonomous element our completion to the highest level ever. OLLE26 was a robust robot that rarely broke down. On those rare occasions, the highly skilled pit crew rose to the occasion to get it back in the game.

After solid performances in qualifying events, BlitzCreek made it to States and did well. Finishing near the cut-off (and with a bit of luck), we were able to qualify for the World Championship in Houston.

Game

The 2026 Rebuilt integrates an archaeological adventure theme. Scoring involves collecting and shooting “fuel” (six-inch balls) into a large horizontal target, as well as lifting the robot to climb a tower.
