LiVE from Chicago...(SOAP)
 

We are in process of setting up the webcast in conjunction with our friends at NASA. Please stay tuned for details. Remember, today is a "practice day" for us too. We will also make it a to-do to have live scoring on soap108.com.

Re: LiVE from Chicago...(SOAP)
 

What is the link?

Are there any other Regionals being webcast?

Thanks SOAP for providing this service!

One nasty math problem
 

All-
2 Motorolans + 1 NASA Engineer + 300 Nextel cell minutes (and still had a healthy battery into the night) + 9 hours 45 minutes of troubleshooting the router, desktop, video cables, operating system services, windows media server settings, real producer settings, encoding hardware, QoS, NASA-KSC network, NASA-Ames network, and different helix servers across the country = The 2004 Motorola Midwest Regional WEBCAST!!

Please appreciate the level of commitment we have for this project. Also, take this as a lesson in never giving up. There is always a solution to a problem...somtimes it takes a long time to find it.

This site should have a link soon: http://robotics.nasa.gov/first/2004/regionals.htm

If not, go here directly:
http://science.ksc.nasa.gov/video/first/chicago.ram
(You will need Real Player)

Also, scores will be posted LiVE at http://www.soap108.com/2004/events/il

ENJOY!!!

Re: Thanks Guys!
 

I agree with RJ, thanks guys! Now I can not do my schoolwork and steal the teacher's computer and watch at school. :)

Re: Thanks Guys!
 

Thank you SOAP! You guys are really amazing.

Go figure, now that there is a webcast, i dont have anything with RealPlayer to watch it. [stupid PDA...] but i'll definately be watching when I get back from class.

Thanks again for your hard work.

Re: LiVE from Chicago...(SOAP)
 

This is the smoothest SOAP stream I've ever watched!

Awesome! You guys have definitely made my day!
(If I had know it would be so good, I would have woken up before 11AM)

Thanks a TON guys!

Who is happy he has no classes today.

Re: LiVE from Chicago...(SOAP)
 

Sweet. Thanks. Also the archive will look great too with a crisp 640x480 capture! We'll start to post the movies during lunch (cant consume too much bandwidth with the stream, of matches, going...).

Thank NASA too!!

does anyone know who is the play by play annoucer at chicago? Just heard a great quote from him: "They're all over Beatty like cheap perfume."

Re: LiVE from Chicago...(SOAP)
 

wow! nice webcast indeed, but did anyone notice that results and standings are being shown at http://www2.usfirst.org/2004comp/Events/IL/matches.html and http://www2.usfirst.org/2004comp/Eve.../rankings.html ?

Dan Greene from Wildstang.
He's been awesome.

"Watch out for those sigmacats, they're no technokittens... they look tough!"
"They're like squidward from spongebob"

He's just great.

As far as the regional goes, we've been watching... too early to tell, but there is a lot of AMAZING potential, and some seriously awesome robots.

Thanks again SOAP and NASA.
