Re: Ruling on Robonauts Balance
I had the privilege of speaking with one of the students who designed the mechanism that was ruled illegal. He seemed pretty astute to me. I am very sorry that we will not get to see the improvements to that mechanism that he spoke of. I am sure that even though the mechanism was ruled illegal and will not be used in competition, one of the main purpose of this competition has been achieved. The students learned how to solve a difficult engineering problem and did it in a spectacular way.
Kudos for pushing the boundaries yet again, 118. That is why our civilization advances.
