Re: Demonstrating... on a Professional Baseball Field?
We had two teams recently do this at a Trenton Thunder game in July, teams 1089 and 484. It was a great experience for the teams and the spectators before the game. The teams pushed their robots via carts on the track that goes in front of the dugout and the backstop, turned around, and went back to where they started. They weren't allowed to go on the playing surface. The did run their robots on the carts, essentially using their LOGO Motion arms to wave at the crowd. I don't believe they ran the robots because of the fear for dirt getting in everything! I think time was a factor too.
All in all, great stuff! The Trenton Thunder representatives hope to have them back the following year.
