No disrespect meant to the engineers and mentors taking part in robot in 3 days. Just my 2 cents.
For us the point of Ri3D is, rather than a place to get ideas, a way to see a prototype of your idea. For anyone like us who doesn't really have a budget for prototypes this can serve as a sort of proxy for it.
