The first human vs robot off season event - Long Island

[Sperkowsky]

Hello all,

So after reading the human vs robot thread I got to thinking. I talked to other members on my team and we decided it would be a good idea to host an off season frc event in long island NY with a game changing twist.

One alliance is Robots and the other is Humans.

We have a few rules in mind to level the playing feild like humans being forced to do coop with a 40 point penalty if they dont do and no reward for doing it. Humans are also not allowed to grab the cans off the step (for safety reasons). And other things but please give us some ideas.

Teams would consist of
the normal drive team plus every team would submit their own Humanoid. The HDs will be required to wear hard hats labeled with their team #.

Ok so you have an idea of what it is like but we need your help.

1.We have never hosted an off season event what are some important logistics to keep in mind.

2.is it ok if the pits are slightly separate from the field meaning they would have to go through 2 doors to get from pits to the field.

3. How many volunteers

4. are any of you guys interested

and biggest of all estimated cost to run

I would really like to hear what LI/NYC teams want. None of us now how this ill go as it has never happened. If any other teams want to help email

For NYC teams - Public tranportation (LIRR) is about 1 mile from the school. Its not too bad of a walk (20 minutes or so) there is a public bus but its not great and only comes every hour or so.

For teams who cant attend dont worry there will be a full hd stream setup with gopros, shoulder rigs, and a couple of high powered capture cards.

anyway we need your help but we will make this happen and we are excited.
