I thought the optical sensors came with the EDU robotics kit. I can't remember seeing them there but I have to go to the lab to check, which won't happen til tomorrow.

The optical sensors come in a yellow (manilla?) shipping envelope, in the same box as the software and MSC's "Big Book" catalog, I believe.
These boxes were not handed out at the San Jose Kickoff, and were shipped to teams.

If I recall correctly, this is pretty commonplace with FIRST. Not to knock them, or anything, but it's true. It's not easy to manage the collection and redistribution of hundreds of thousands, if not millions, of dollars worth of equipment to more than 800 different locations throughout North and South America (and part of Europe, is it?).
Patience is key, but I have to admit that I was very worried about all of our missing 40 Amp self-resetting breakers, until I got a reply and clarification from Dave Lavery, himself.
