: Does anyone know the purpose of the two heavy big grey boxes that say "Exide"? Are they just provided to help teams keep a center of mass where they need it?

As far as I can tell, unless I am mistaken, it seems like you are describing the batteries, one of the only power source allowed on the robot. I am sure every team use them, but maybe not all the teams use them to keep a center of mass where they need it, although it can be useful that way. One thing is that you can only have one battery on the robot at a time, and can not use another one to add weight. You can do that by adding raw steel bar or some other heavy material.
