Re: Human players, kinect
I was at the Alamo Regional in San Antonio this weekend and I don't believe anyone used it (or at least didn't see anyone do so.) I don't find the Kinect useful except as mentioned above when you can tell your robot the perfect time to start the autonomous. It also seems very unreliable being from the side of the robot and being able to line up correctly. Team 118 had auto tracking during autonomous which proved to be VERY consistent. Congratulations to the team that does use it successfully.
