Re: Intelligent Ground Vehicle Competition (AKA - ROBOTS!)
I would also have to vouch for this competition. We have an IGVC Team at Georgia Tech, but most former FIRST participants default to our FIRST team. Not that it is a bad thing, but on some level, I would like to see more former FIRSTers expand their robotics experience.
I know that our IGVC team is just starting to expand it's capabilities thanks to some of the experience that was brought in from FIRST. As a current FIRST participant, I can say that it is a good experience to work with non-FIRST components once in a while. And the vision/navigation systems are really cool. We may actually adapt some of them for our FIRST team.
