Well we (1279) are back from the DC Regional and
nearly unpacked
A great event, well run, thank you organizers and volunteers.
The teams were all great and it was good to see many familiar Jersey faces.
We made some new friends with our mini-bot pole, some folks came to race and some just to debug or tune-up, but it was great to see all the designs and talk to their creators. Team 623 had the fastest time tested with a blinding 1.171 seconds, not far behind was 2016 with 1.312.
Finally very special thanks to 449 and 56 our alliance partners, we went down fighting and gave 378, 1511, and 2590 a run for their money! Good luck going forward!
To me, every robot is a moving mechanical art form, a sculpture made of aluminum, motors and gears, and I think that soon we will be seeing those art forms involved in some of the most fantastic robotic "dances" that any of us have ever seen - DougHogg [more]
