I wish to second this comment 100%. I do hope that if teams do attempt to play defense they avoid people’s careful crafted manipulators. 1023 experienced this problem last year when trying to grab tubes from the floor. The game became more of a demolition derby than strategically placing many ringers.

On another note, yet another amazing robot from Team 67. Congratulations on a fantastic piece of engineering. Everything appears to be designed to do the task as fast and efficiently as possible. Do I spy a CMU camera on HOTBOT? If so, are you using it to identify trackballs in hybrid?

Pat, send me an email and let me know what your plans are....(ie; what days / time you plan on going). I will see if I can help out.

- We haven't attempted shifting on the fly yet, so I can't say how well they work.

- Yes that is the CMU Camera, our plan is to detect the color of the trackball at the start of the match.

We didn't get as much debugging time as we would like this year, so Thursday at FLR will be a very busy day for the HOT Team.
