Re: Looking Back: 3 Day Robots
I think our team took too much inspiration from Ri3D. Next year I think we're going to try and sit down and work out the decision matrix weightings before we look at what other teams are doing. There's nothing wrong with seeing how something is successfully implemented and getting inspiration from it, but there's something to be said for having the students design something on their own.
Ultimately it's another resource, no worse than CD or looking at youtube videos of previous years. There's only so many ways you can handle a giant inflatable ball, just like last year there were only so many ways you could throw a frisbee.
