The first four pictures are that of our first prototype, the treads were not going as well as we had hoped. Also the top part holding everything together was not as stable and did not directly support the bot in an efficient manner. With our new design seen in the last three photos, we've braced the top part of the bot in a more structurally sound way. Along with that is the substitution of wheels instead of tank treads for increased traction to better facilitate movement. The one thing that's remained constant is the mechanism at the top that we will use for the combination lock.
