Re: 2012 Field Comm. Issue Logs

I don't have a lot of the information you'd like to see here since I am not a control systems person by any means. I am, however, the drive coach and so I see the problems we have first hand.

We ran throughout the Alamo regional without any trouble. We ran throughout the qualifying matches of the Seattle Olympic without any trouble.

During the elimination rounds, we experienced severe lag in several matches and lost the video from our camera in at least one match. Several others experienced similar issues including loss of the camera feed, both on our alliance and on others.

The common sense that FIRST is so fond of suggests that the chance of the same issue plaguing multiple teams at the same time is quite small, but does not, apparently, apply to the field or control system.

I'll try to get someone with a better understanding of how our control system is configured to chime in.
