Re: pic: Autonomous malfunction

We had something happen similar this year. We were testing out the code for our catapult shoot series and someone came in from the CAD team and picked up the controller to get a measurement for it and place it upside down on the table. This caused the robot to take off full speed towards a student sitting in a chair. Luckily one of the programmers has quick reactions and was able to disable the robot before it did any damage.
