Taking Robot out of Bag

[Chris Fultz]

FIRST did us all a great favor by allowing us to access the robots for demonstrations and community events.

Our open house is Thursday Night (delayed because of so many snow days) and we intend to simply unbag the robot so people can see it clearly, and bag it back up at the end of the evening. No work, no adjustments, no fitting of other parts.

If teams cross the line and abuse this new option, we could quikly be back to the "Bag and Forget" option of the past and that would be disappointing.

In my opinion, fitting a manipulator is working on the robot, for all of the reasons stated by others.
