It would be interesting to see how your's and our's compare. (too bad we will probably NOT be in the same regional....we are in the New Haven, CT regional)

They are probably very similar. We built USB hand controllers for 3 people to use to describe the locations of objects and tell how many balls are in the goals. These are attached to a laptop which displays the information for the strategy officer and displays the optimal placement of the objects assuming you can make 1,2,3 etc changes to the field. 3 HUD's are attached to the laptop over RS-232 to display current score (not multiplied) and the current count of balls in each goal. We are making our robot drivable by one pilot so the rest of the team can concentrate on strategy. The game will be won in the last 30 seconds by the team who can arrange the playing field optimally.
