Re: Do you use 3d printed mounts?

Re: Controller help with the HERO?
Yeah, PS4 controllers don't show up as standard HID controllers that I'm aware of... maybe there is a way to do it but I haven't found it.

Re: Is FIRST about Robot?

Re: LIDAR Lite Alternative
In theory, this thing is legal (I can't confirm because I don't know if it is Class 1 or Class 1M though):

Re: Do you use 3d printed mounts?
We used 3d printed mounts as well as 3d printed cases for electronics last season and intend to continue that trend this year as well. Also, 3d printed spacers... custom sizes are so easy to make.

Re: Uses of Lexan
We use Lexan for a lot of different parts on our bots. Good stuff. For structural components you need to ensure that they are thick enough or rigid enough for the application, which can add weight.

Re: paper: Stop the Stop Build
I suppose that's the issue I'm getting at. Removing stop build in fact opens up new possibilities for teams to collaborate both at an event and prior to an event starting. Just a thought. ;)
