Re: Average Lap Distance

So far, and it looks like the CD community is fairly consistant in its answers - the average lap distance is 100 - 110 feet. If so, and assuming with acceleration and deceleration - weaving through the crowds - turning, etc ... how many laps can you do in the 2 minute teleoperated period? We figured, using last year's robot, that we could do 10 ft/sec in the straight-aways, or 11 seconds with the calculated distance of the lap - BUT, with the other obstacles and turns, we figured a best guess of 16 seconds per lap, or about 8 laps per match.

How many laps do you think you could do during a match?
