Due to the usage of STEAM in the 2017 FRC game, safety measures have to be improved. Here we see the beta test of the new Alliance Station, complete with vision obstructions that haven't been cleared by Field Reset yet.

But would a fan still be a pneumatic device if there is no air?

Not an entry.

Team 2252 getting ready for the new version of the portcullis at their next offseason: The Garage Door.

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #646
 

I am sure we can make this garage door open with just a bit more tweaking to our code (as they later learn it is just a manual garage door).
