Re: Launcher Safety Ideas

Ah, all well and good. But here's what really concerns me (and if there is already an active thread on this please point me to it)...
This whole IR board thing and what we are allowed to do with it. I personally will be very afraid in the pits if anyone near me is using the same IR channel and accidentally sets off something on my robot or a robot near me.
The IR board is outside the limits of the tether and in my mind that poses a huge safety issue in the pits.

Any other thoughts? or am I just paranoid?
