Good insights. I'd like to add that there would be an extra shift toward communication between the teams as well.
While the idea of a basketball-themed robot game is exciting, I wonder how well each robot/operator would work together to form a cohesive team. How will the teams coordinate with each other? (Perhaps the introduction of headsets and microphones on the field?)
Seems like an interesting idea to pursue. Plus, this would become a good selling point to entice students into the FIRST program.
