Placement of Robot!
Can we take a tape measure to measure the exact placement of our robot in the begining?

they haven't said, but my guess would be no.... besides, its smart to guesstimate a starting position and make a program that doesn't need it to be exact

(or train someone to be able to measure in their head )

A little work will get you very far in life...

After going onto the FRC forum and typing in the simple search phrase "measuring" I found this link to the answer to your question.

I'm not going to tell you here so you can do something to get your answer.
