A HUGE thank you to FiM for getting this streaming out there for everyone to see. Of course, if you find their links too hard to remember, the stream is already set up on our front page at www.fightingpi.org

(Note - Team 1718 has nothing to do with providing the stream. We are merely putting their embed code on our front page to make it easier to remember a link).

Good luck at States!

We, 2771, will be webcasting MSC as well. We will be streaming Thursday, Friday and Saturday all day, starting sometime Thursday morning. We will be doing a dual feed, one of the full field and one field view. The webcast can be found at www.coderedrobotics.com/webcast.

Just one more day! I can hardly wait. Good luck to all of the teams competing, and hope you all kick bot in the coming days!

I'm not sure, but I don't think that twitter account for Michigan is right. When I went to it, it didn't have anything to do with FIRST in Michigan or MSC.
Last year we had created an MSC twitter handle, but it was not updated.

For following MSC on Twitter, I'd use the hashtag #FiMSC and #omgRobots.

#omgRobots is the tag that is used when generally talking about FIRST, and it's one that people know to tag.

Overall: SO excited that this event is going to be streamed live for people to watch at home. Thank you to whoever set all of this up! Technology is pretty amazing.

The Detroit Public TV broadcast just blew me away. I didn't know it existed until this morning and I instantly switched from my TBA feeds.

I just can't say enough good things about this feed: professional, ESPN-comparable, announcers that know their stuff (they even use screen-draw), top-notch camera angles, sleek custom score reporting screens, team prompts, I could go on and on.

This feed is not only great to watch for robotics people, but also great for public consumption. This is the kind of stuff that gets robotics exposure and publicity.

That's because it didn't, it's only for Saturday as far as I know.

Sure -- hold them in MI!

This was without a doubt the best feed I've ever had the pleasure of watching. The DPTV coverage and 2337's camera together on separate big screens was just "nerd heaven"!
