Re: Does G14 prohibit using a webcam on the driver station during AUTO?

G21 from Recycle Rush did have the same 'indirectly' statement: "During AUTO, DRIVE TEAMS must not directly or indirectly interact with ROBOTS or OPERATOR CONSOLES" but it also included a blue box statement "FIRST salutes the creative and innovative ways in which Teams have interacted with their ROBOTS during AUTO in previous seasons, making the AUTO period more of a hybrid period due to indirect interaction with the OPERATOR CONSOLE. The RECYCLE RUSH AUTO Period, however, is meant to be truly autonomous and ROBOT or OPERATOR CONSOLE interaction (such as through webcam or Kinect™) are prohibited." The lack of the explicit statement this year is curious.

Not sure how to ask on the QA.
