Re: **FIRST EMAIL**/FRC Game Hint #2

okay, my grand unified theroy of everything

IR sensor= field control element, switched by robots. NOT INTENDED FOR USE ON THE ROBOT

Coordinates=seems to point to the globe bar and grill, which could be a throwback to "raising the bar" with balls and bars. Maybe the grill stands for what will serve as a game piece(balls) delivery mechanism.

After some more reading of what raising the bar auto, maybe instead of hitting the yellow ball in auto, its going to be "seek out green light, drive towards, transmit IR code"
I'm still clueless how human players will factor in the game. We'll all just have to find out on kickoff!
