I just received this email (notice the mandatory control system is also by Innovation First):
----------------------------------------------------------------- AN IMPORTANT MESSAGE FROM BATTLEBOTS INC. Yes! It is finally here! Battlebots is proud to announce the first ever BattleBots High School Competition! Here's the info we have for you now: (subject to changes) * The Competition will be held in Orlando, Florida at Universal Studios on March 29th & 30th, 2002. * Check-in and Safety/Tech inspection dates to be announced. * The Competition will be for students 12-18 years of age - Each Team must have an adult guardian/advisor. * There will be one (1) weight class - Middleweight robots only (see standard BattleBots Technical Regulations for details - available here http://www.battlebots.com/bnc_rules.asp). * All entrants MUST use the Isaac16 or Isaac32 control system from IFI Robotics (http://www.ifirobotics.com) to conform with safety requirements. * We are working on getting special rates for hotels and will have more information shortly. * Look for more explicit details in the comings months. We are very excited about this upcoming event. We are also looking into the possibility of having regional competitions in the Summer of 2002 for further BattleBots High School Competitions. I would very much appreciate all of you sending me your names and addresses. We will determine where to hold future regional competitions depending on the feedback we get from the various regions of the country. This is the beginning of something really neat and you can be a part of the premiere competition. I look forward to hearing from all of you as soon as possible as we need to lay the groundwork NOW. If you think there is a good possibility of your team attending the Orlando Competition, please let me know as we will have to limit the number of teams for the premiere event. Stay tuned and keep in touch! Sincerely, BattleBots Inc. Attn: Nola Garcia, Education Director nola@battlebots.com |
