The lights are on the robot to provide visual feedback to the drivers and team members in stands during matches. We were highly successful with this setup on last year's robot so it was a no-brainer to do some on this one. We have LED's on the intake arms and under the chassis. Though, the underglow LEDs are currently disconnected until we unbag at Hatboro.
