Hahaha!

I actually like this theory, and it's relevant because it's not the first time a co-ordinate has lead to the placement of something. A fun fact about Dean's house is that it is a perfect distance & direction from FIRST HQ which helps in transmitting info via radio from FIRST to Westwind (Dean's House).
(I forget what that distance & direction specifically was. I'll try to contact the person who gave me this info, and get some more details. But all I'm trying to say, is that a lot of things are put somewhere for a purpose)

See attached.

Think different, no more coordinates, lets try something else. what else could those numbers represent?

I have an image of it:
The 'obelisks'

I know some of these things have been brought up before, but I have visuals..
Oooh!! Ahhhh!!! LOL

Anyways, If you stand @ said coordinate, & look at in the direction of the 342 degree heading (if that's what it is), we can see a sculpture called the tortoise & the hare,


Some other coincidences when u stand there and look that way, are that you are facing "Beacon St." & MIT among other things, but directly in your sights is the Copley Square Fountain. Which to me looks like (among other things a huge field goal type structure) Football. w00t!
& The big Beacon St. connection?
Beacon = IR beacon? Dun dun dun!! lol



The single most important picture I found was this one shown below.
If you actually stood in that spot, and looked in that direction this is probably the angle you would see. Looks like I found the perfect picture for our clue as shown below.






My final guess is that we are using the IR sensors to aim at a beacon & between a field goal type football structure.
The visual link to the Tortoise & The Hare I'm having trouble trying to link to that theory, but oh well.

EI In FIRST World stands for Engineering Inspiration.


On last thought. As some of you know (and others may not), some parts of kickoff are actually not recorded live. What if some of the relevant information to this spot has actually been filmed on location in Copley Square already?

Anyone live in that area, and remember seeing a film crew in or around that location any time recently?
