Re: Robot competition business idea
I've been trying to think of a business way to make money for FIRST for a few years now. I hate asking people for money, it's just not my nature, so if there is a way for the team to earn money I'd love to give it a shot.
One idea I've talked about with some people is a sumo-bot style competition, where the object is to push and shove your opponent out of the ring. It would only take a couple robots to get the competition started, and maybe this idea could be incorporated with letting people control the robots over the internet. Since there is always a lot of pushing and shoving in a FIRST match it would serve as a good testbed for developing drive systems.
Any thoughts?
