Re: were there robot related injuries on your team?

I am the programmer on my team, and basically i was the one in control of the dongle. Well we were prototyping with the CMUcam and basically it was supposed to go really fast towards the light if the light was far away. Basically while i was holding onto the dongle, out mentor had the light on a cart and was standing a couple of feet from the robot (so the robot should go slowly towards him). I flipped the dongle out of disable and the camera found the light coming through the windows behind our mentor, and just plain ran our cart over. Thankfully I hit the disable switch before the robot reached our mentor who froze in his place.
