Re: FPGA 2011

I think there is enough crazy advanced stuff that we can do without getting into the advanced programming of an FPGA. Oh, if only we had a 8 or 9 week build season. Teams would be making amazing things and breaching what would be possible with radio-controlled robots.

I also remember the rookie teams who flounder around with the advancement and detail of our current control system. I think it's a great system, but if you're not a strong team or if you're just trying to get a rolling robot, sometimes the extra advancement doesn't matter, IMHO.
