Bill confirmed that it was thrown in there. If i remember correctly the whole game was planned and then microsoft donated 2500 Kinects to FRC. Sobthey had a couple meetings and made it legal to benused during Hybrid.

I personnely think we will be able to use it in both hrbid or on our robot. I would rather use it on my robot though because of the possible advantages. The kinect for driving the robot is really good thing for demo's though, has any teams been using it at the kinect?
