Re: 2010 PARC XIII
 

Does anyone have pictures they'd like to post from PARC XIII?

It will take longer than usual to get match videos. The encoder system I used didn't work so I have no digital copy of the event, I do have a DVD-DL that I recorded using a DVD Recorder, so I do have the video from the single camera.

I was working on getting the field software to work at the same time as I was working on the video setup, and the field took priority. Also I couldn't use the normal system for encoding (Tricaster), so the encoder pc was thrown together in a hurry( not powerful enough to encode the video), so thats why the webcast was extremely choppy. Sorry. Since I no longer have access to the tricaster, I am trying to come up with a budget to purchase a substitute. I am considering the Newtek VT card and building an encoder PC.

PARC has always been a great off season event to allow team members to try out different roles, and this year was no exception. Though only 6 students from our team were able to attend, we were able to quickly build a drive team and play to the best of our abilities, despite the bumps we encountered along the way. Overall, it was an amazing day with some excellent matches. And the first time a ball bounced in the bot at the last second while hanging.

303 had a great showing - Every time I saw them they were dancing around the field, scoring again and again. 1640 also played some great defense, blocking 341 in the semifinals. The real-time score was close enough to make me panic during my first time as drive coach :ahh: . Teams 341 and 1989 were great partners and I look forward to working with them again in the future.

When i look back 2 years ago, i can see how far FIRST has taken me.

Great job to everyone who attend the PARC! The last time I attended, was as a team member of FRC87...I believe in 2000 or '01. Brought back some awesome memories. Not sure if I am dating myself or the PARC?!

Anyway, it was great to be a part of the awesome volunteer crew and to see all of the teams interact so well with each other. Congrats to all who attended and competed with such intensity and gracious professionalism.

Bravo to all!
