Go to Post 610 is an all boys school, and we were surprised to see our pit and robot neatly decorated with hot pink boas and flowers upon arrival this morning. - Mr. Lim [more]

How much do you trust your bot?

So, the below post made me think. Are you all this confident about your bot? Is it a asset or a detriment? Are you too confident, not enough, or perfect(like me)?

Dave's calculations aside, I am 120% confident that there is no way our bumpers from last year or this year would break even if only supported every 12".

Re: How much do you trust your bot?

I'm fairly confident that it will work--although, given that it has chased me around the room and backed me into a corner while testing camera tracking, I can't say that I trust it that much(in fact, we have a copy of "How to Survive a Robot Uprising" velcroed to our control board
