Re: Explaining the FIRST Competition to Others...
... but seriously...
Someone needs to make a YouTube video that clearly and succinctly covers all the points in this thread.
...and it has to be shorter than 3 minutes.
You could only imagine how much I've wanted a "What is Robotics?" video that went into these kinds of more low-level "nitty gritty" details.
It's the video you want to show to a parent, teacher, potential mentor, or sponsor who's already at the competition, watching intently. They're already felt the initial "hook," but now want more details - they're interested in "what the heck is going on behind the controls, and under the hood?"
Most of the videos we produce are high-level "isn't robotics great?" type videos. But once you get past that point (which is surprisingly easy to do), we seem to lack the "now that you're interested, here's exactly what's going on" type video.
