Re: ball counter
Trust me FIRST will - As we all know its hard to make something roboust from Human, Robot and Scoring Object Contact. By FIRST piloting this years real time scoring by utilizing Cameras and Optical Sensors they have taken once again another huge step in the right direction, Their Main goal is that everyone has fun and the only way to do that is to make us the voluneers jobs that much easier - Yeah we had human counters as well and their count supersceded the Real Time Count but think of it this way at least you know the score will be that much more truthful. Trust me I'm sure whatever FIRST has planned for next year they will most definitaley bring back the Real Time Scoring and it will either go through a few upgrades or maybe just a couple of updates. Who Knows. All I can say is that it worked fairly well this year and I do hope it returns next year.
