Re: Robowranglers 2015: Batman & Robin

Ahh, yes. I see that now.

Now, to set that all up in 60 seconds or less.

Note: I did tell our programmers to make an autonomous option to do nothing. So, we would make a great alliance member.

Re: Robowranglers 2015: Batman & Robin

Now the question becomes, who do they pick for their Championship winning alliance...

I could only dream :D

They pick 148, and 148, and their back up bot will be 148.

12 robots isn't an alliance. It's an army.

Are the Robowranglers showing us the beginning of the robot apocalypse?

So are we assuming 148 is sponsored by SkyNet and we just don't know about it?

Isn't this a violation of G27. I'm I missing something?

What is it contacting outside the field of play?

I can't see what would be violating this rule

Quote:

ROBOTS and anything they control (except for LITTER in the LITTER CHUTE and TOTES in the TOTE CHUTE), may not contact anything outside the FIELD.

When inserted into the Recycling container, the human player is, at some point, touching the noodle while the robot has control of it through its control of the Recycling container. And since the litter is not in the litter chute, it's not exempt from this rule. This would be an interesting one for the Q&A, I don't know which way they would rule on it.

The robot is in control of the RECYCLING CONTAINER. The LITTER is outside of the field. As the LITTER is inserted into the RECYCLING CONTAINER it is in contact with the RECYCLING CONTAINER.

Re: Robowranglers 2015: Batman & Robin

I agree with Jon. It is a violation of G27.

Once the Litter is held by the RC, the Litter is being controlled by the Robot (indirectly through the RC). Since the Litter is not in the Litter Chute, they are not entitled to an exception to the rule.

Now, if they can release the Litter prior to the Litter being held by the RC, then they may be able to avoid the "control" issue. However, they wedge the litter into the RC, and that requires simultaneous touching of the litter by the Human Player, and being controlled by the RC.

According to this Q&A here they are good to go.

Code:



Q. Can a human player hold on to litter while it is simultaneously touching the recycle bin ?

2015-01-08 by FRC2081



A. Yes, there are no rules prohibiting that.

A. Yes, there are no rules prohibiting that.

I would say that that particular question--though not expressly stated--referred to litter going through the Litter Chute, not over the wall. The Litter Chute is an exception to G27.

I will also point out Q141. So there are multiple rules to be very very careful with--G1, G4, and G27 could potentially all apply.

That's incredible! Congratulations on designing an amazing machine--I can't wait to see it in some actual matches.
