We developed a blocker that
A) Allowed us to go under the pyramid
B) Was configurable to 60 or 84 inches
C) Didn't break or weigh a lot.
We used one of those orange poles that go into the ground to mark off where the street ends and elastic.
It started bent back into our bot and flipped out when the shooter was raised, Our philosophy behind it was that you don't need to stop the shots, you only need to throw off the trajectory. There is one match out the where we parked in front of team 503, Frog Force, and negated all Teleop points from them that match.
