That's tremendously strange. I was pouring over both pictures and CAD drawings trying to find out the answer to this very question. With no top to the airlock, what is the point of the lower, harder-to-use little windows?
I don't really get it, and that has made me worried that I'm missing something. I plan to ask on the Q&A, just to double-triple check this. Patrick |

Thanks, Dave. That simplifies things dramatically!
Well, except for the faux ice. And the non-expansion. And the trailer. Patrick |

1. As Ironstorm has already pointed out, it protects human fingers from being squished, especially in a year where robot controllability is at all time low. 2. It takes away the 90 degree corners in the field, making it less likely that robots will be jack knifed in a corner unable to get out, and making it harder for robots to corner each other. 3. It makes the challenge of designing a delivery mechanism more interesting. |
