Depends on how you do it. You can't attach to level 3 and then ride up (cause it violates both hight limit rules and pyramid level rules.) You have to start by getting onto level 1 and being off the ground, then attaching to level 2 and so on.

Nah just latch onto the bottom and then ride up. would that count as sequential climbing?

As a 2013 field supervisor, I'm bringing a hard hat.

It would, except it will be extremely difficult to slide up the bar considering this photo as taken by team 3467:

The bars that enforce the "levels" of the pyramid are on the outside of the legs.

Well it does say in the rules that you can use a Microsoft Kinect as a controller. It just uses it as an example, but I don't really think it is necessary to drive.

The colored discs certainly remind me of Empty Cells in Lunacy.

I also feel that these pyramids are going to create a great visibility hazard similar to that experienced in Rack N Roll.

My thoughts exactly

It won't be a problem if you don't make it a problem

I'm curious what design you've dreamed up. The most widely successful climberbot from 2010 that I can remember is 2056's wheeled climber that regularly carried them to the top of the TOWERs. It couldn't work on 2013's PYRAMIDs as is because of the way the rungs cross the corner supports.

It might be possible to build some kind of related 2-stage device where you climb the first 30", then regrab above the bar, and continue, but to simply latch on and climb as in 2010 seems impossible.

Kind of surprises me a bit, since Field Reset is a big component of the time between matches, which they've been trying to minimize.
Team Queing is going to be a nightmare. We have to wait for teams to get safely removed from the towers after each match. It's gonna take forever and it still will be the que teams fault.
