Re: [FTC]: FTC Expands the kit of parts option for next season

If there is any chance of combining electronics between Matrix and Tetrix, they would both need to run of 12 VDC. FTC referees will still need a single switch to disable robots. You could accomplish this with another control box, but requiring 12 VDC compatibility shouldn't be that difficult to design to.

I wonder if controllers can be mixed on the same sensor port. That could add significant flexibility. The Matrix controllers appear slightly larger than the Hitechnic controllers.
