Re: Questions at demos

616 recently went to a convention with a lot of technology companies and one of our sponsors was there and we carried last year's robot along with this year's robot. They had door prizes and we were demonstrating the robot at the same time they were announcing the winners. Well the announcer told us that we could use our 2005 robot to lift the prizes up in the air. (Using the scissors lift). It was neat, the person who won would come up and we'd lower the scissors lift and they would grab the prize.

The people would ask, what does it do? And then they would ask more technical questions as well. Our sponsors came up and asked if they could drive the robots--no hesitation there, they are the ones who helped us so we didn't mind letting them drive what they helped make. It was neat, our sponsor saw what we did with their financial help.
