You'll have full control over the robot via the software and will be able to see the camera images that stream from the robot's perspective. It's a high res, low latency feed on the robots and around the arena.
Lots of these robots will be playing in the same arena - a real life online multiplayer game!
We want robots to be able to construct structures, destroy them using weapons and interact with the arena (opening doors,etc.).
How will you handle the case where number of users >> number of robots? It seems incredibly possible for there to be at least 10x more users than robots. How will you attract and keep me engaged as a user when I have to wait hours for a 10 minute time slot?
