All,
I've been thinking about guests and families of teams who will be in the stands during the upcoming competitions. I'd love to have a handout available that has some of the terms and their meanings that FIRSTers can reference when explaining the game, the awards, and the philosophy of FIRST. It's long been a wish a mine to have something like this in the information that FIRST distributes at the events. This handout would be something we could make available to the teams to help their guests enjoy the event with a deeper understanding.
There is a thread that was created last season called,
FIRST Acronyms. It might be helpful to combine that with the terminology. The last post in that thread listed all of the acronyms that were posted in the thread and it is a very helpful resource.
I'm not great with technical definitions and would appreciate it if members would help think of common terminology in FIRST and terminology that is specific to LogoMotion.
An example would be:
autonomous - definition (provide the definition)
another would be:
minibot - definition
I asked a couple of friends' opinions on whether this is a good topic or not and they gave positive responses. Hopefully, this could be a helpful guide that would increase our guests/visitors' understanding and appreciation of the game and FIRST.
Thanks for your help with this.
Jane
