The curtain could be lifted to a height that results in the camera just capturing the field and driver stations. Somebody with equipment and who lives geographically closer than me could volunteer to make that happen next year on Friday before the tournament !?

At a few events where 2175 ran the webcast, we have run either a GoPro or a cheaper wide angle web cam off the side of the side of the field. This only requires a ~10ft pole for the camera (plus cables), and can be set up at any field, regardless of venue (even outside...).

We're working on all the different aspects of this setup, including pole construction and positioning and the software package to capture the feed(s), run the stream, and archive and upload matches. With more testing this off-season, hopefully it's something that can be rolled out at more and more events at very low cost (<$100).
