Re: Canburglar Safety

What we are making inherently is not safe. If making robots was a safe thing to do then we wouldn't have so many rules. In my opinion if your design is justified then safety in that situation is not only making the design as safe to handle as possible, but it also includes being around it. Securing springs, monitoring air pressure, safety isn't just making things not hurt, its about stopping the situations that get people hurt.
This is from the experience of having a can burglar on our robot that straight up scares me and being in charge of field reset for our teams drive practice.
