Lights On Robot???

[Sam2197]

are we allowed to have led or neon lights on our robot this year during competition. its just for looks but our team was thinking it'd look pretty sweet.

Yes. Q&A has allowed them. Bear in mind that you should be able to shut them off if another team requests it.

The answer is a qualified yes depending on your inspection. These are classified as non functional decorations but still come under the heading of interferring with vision systems, color rtecognition systems and of course, safety.
