Re: Live AMAA with FRC Director Frank Merrick on 1/5 @ 8:30pm EST on Spotlight!
I was lucky enough to meet one of the engineers at AndyMark who was on the FTC GDC and talked about how their missions get designed, which was REALLY interesting.
Who makes up the GDC? How does the GDC create and decide on missions/a game? Is the FRC GDC similar to the FTC GDC in that they come up with a few ideas/tasks for missions and let the engineers come up with a few designs that are easy to build with COTS parts and then come back to present them and the GDC decides on which ones to go with?
Where do you think FRC/FIRST will be at in 5 years? 10 years?
What will be the biggest positive (& negative - if any) change for teams this year (like how FTC switched control systems)?
I also know that you previously mentioned something about testing a format for webcasts at IRI this past year. Will webcasts be standardized this year with support from FRC? (I'm partially asking this since my regional asked me to help out with webcasting and I pointed them to a local video production company.)
Keep up the great work Frank!
