Go to Post I think it's important to keep FIRST's most important award as the top point getter [in Fantasy FIRST]. It's help reinforce that the Chairman's award, Engineering Inspiration and Woodie Flowers award are actually important and FIRST is about more than just the robots. - Koko Ed [more]

TWO of the ramp supports line up with the two lines. These supports are not painted white, but they are aluminum, and should be easily detected by your optical sensors.

One twist -- which I haven't had a chance to play around with -- is the fact that over this aluminum support is the wire mesh. This will PROBABLY cause the signal from the support to flicker as you go up the ramp.
