Robot Placement
I'm sure it will be like in previous years. There will probably be an outline drawn out on the carpet that your robot must start within.
In previous years, the outline was much bigger than the robot profile (i.e. there was about a 4 foot by 4 foot rectangle drawn on the carpet which is obviously bigger than the 36x30 inch robot restriction). In the past, this allowed the teams to position the robot in an optimal position (e.g. at an angle toward an object) before the match started.
I don't know if the starting position outline will be tighter this year or not.
