Personally, I think that more relaxed rules with materials are the key to having a wide variety of robot designs and we see robots with a wide array of capabilities as well. I believe that the rules for 2000 were very open-ended, however, we all know that it could change from year-to-year. I think that I would like to see SMC put some more pneumatics up in the kit. I think that it would really expand everyone's horizons to be able to incorporate pnuematics devices more into the design and operation of their robot. Although sometimes heavy, expensive, and sometimes hard to work with, I would love to see how the hundereds of different teams would utilize them in design.

I have a good question for next week Andy- how many of you people used the pneumatics on your robot and what exactly did they function as? was their performace reliable? would you use them again? are they efficient? did the students work well with them?
I'd like to know.
