OK let me start by saying that the whole tether thing is a real sore point with me.
That said...now, Since the wording appears the same as last year, Mouse Bots should be legal. What good are they? They can run under a 13 inch bar, they can knock over stacks of bins, they can allow a robot to do two things at once.
At the 10 second mark, if the platform is the goal, you reel in the mouse bot like a hose reel. Otherwise you just leave it out there.
I am VERY VERY curious how the engineers are going to rule on tethers this year.
I hope they spell out exactly what will and will not be allowed BEFORE the robots ship.
There, I feel better
