Re: Opponent Clarification

I have another question, Is only one team at a time allowed to use the kinect?
Because I watched a video and it looked as if there will only be two kinects in at a time. One for the Red Alliance and one for the Blue Alliance.
Again, my question is... is only one team at a time aloud to use the kinect or do all three teams of a specific alliance use the kinect at once?

Yes, one kinect per alliance.

It wouldn't hurt to spend some more time reading through the rules. I need to read them all again, myself.

One team from each alliance can send a human player to use the field-side kinect during hybrid mode to communicate with that team's robot. All three driver stations have the capability to connect to the kinect, but only one at a time per side can. All three teams may use a kinect mounted on the robot as a sensor. Once the teleop mode begins, the field-side kinect becomes obsolete.

Re: Opponent Clarification

only one team per alliance gets to use the Kinect during hybrid mode, but that doesn't mean that you can't have a kinect on your robot...
