Re: FIRST is really looking into the Einstein problems

Just got this email from FIRST.

Quote:
ear FRC Teams:



Thank you for your continued patience, support, and submissions as we conduct the evaluation of Einstein from Championship. This examination and the ultimate solutions remain the top priority for the FRC team. Here are the most up-to-date actions and information.



The final twelve teams who competed on Einstein, including 1-2 representatives and the team robot, will participate in the evaluation this upcoming weekend (June 9-10) in New Hampshire.



FRC is recreating a full competition field, utilizing the same electronics present at Championship, on which to conduct the testing. We are duplicating all possible conditions to match the St. Louis environment. While it can never be a perfect replication, FIRST has matched each possible condition within its control, including using the same Championship production company to provide the same lighting conditions.



In addition to FIRST staff and team representatives, 18 additional key FIRST volunteers and outside experts from across the U.S. will be in attendance to collect data, form hypotheses, and analyze results.



We are deeply grateful to the twelve final Einstein teams for their whole-hearted participation and support. At every juncture, they have openly shared information and been extremely forthcoming and helpful – true models of Gracious Professionalism. We also are thankful to our community for sharing their 2012 season experiences, theories, and advice. Thank you for your continued patience as we move through this important process.



We believe this upcoming weekend will be tremendously instructive and productive.



Sincerely,



Jon

Success doesn't always equate to match wins. It's about the wins off the field.
