Despite our love for hockey, even in Canada we cannot get permission to fill and freeze the moats (high school gym, wooden floors, blah, blah, blah). Instead, the resourceful STEMley planners have been searching for the next best thing - a surface which simulates the low friction characteristic of frozen water.
No, not regolith.
Robot testing is currently underway on a roller top surface (see attachment) that would fill the gap between the moat side walls.
Team registration for the
2016 STEMley Cup Championship (along with the two other Ontario off-season events) is open now.
