Video is cool but how much it does it really change the game for the alliance with that capability..who knows guess we'll find out soon enough. Still way cool.
Exactly the reason why the students wanted to design our bot to handle the bins in any orientation and make it our #1 priority. If we get paired with a bot that can do something like this, we can focus on capping tote stacks while our partner makes those stacks....there's more teamwork to this game than people are giving it credit for...
