Re: were there robot related injuries on your team?
Last year, there was a senior team member who tried to convince a rookie that the big red button on the controller was a self destruct switch. Of course, he pushed it and the robot went into its dead reckoning autonomous across our shop and into the desk I was working behind, pushing it along with me into the wall. There was no lasting effects, but it sure was interesting.
Last year, again in the off season, our team was moving our equipment into storage in a semi trailer, so our tool chest needed to be disassembled. While putting it back together, I slid the loaded hammer drawer onto its runner and as I prepared to do the same on the other side, the clip gave and the drawer fell, leaving a gash around my thumb leaving the ligaments visible and partially severing a nerve. It took 5 stitches to get it back together.
And on a completely unrelated note, I have been working this whole build season with a broken wrist.
