At the competition perhaps FIRST could assure that the Alliance Station metal structure is grounded and make reminders at the driver's meetings to make contact with the metal before touching the controls?

That's great for preventing damage at the competition--but what I suspect is that most of the damage to DSs will occur before the robot ever gets to the competition, just due to the time frames involved
Our boaard is made of aluminum and acrylic--do you think that just having anyone who's going to use the system touch the aluminum ribs would be enough to dissipate the static, or would the ribs have to actually be connected to something?
