From what i read on the FIRST site they mentioned 2 venues, Reliant Stadium and the AstroDome.

What i was figuring was that the floor of the Dome would be the main pit area. There are access ramps with huge garage like doors leading from the street level to the floor of the Dome. These would be used to get robots to and from the pit area.

For the actual layout of the playing fields i was thinking they may place them on the floor of Reliant Stadium and maybe a video board behind them. Maybe something like the different configurations in the picture i attached. The stands would be normal stands of the stadium. For a main stage just build a stage at the center or something. All this may make scouting easier because all of the stadiums are in one place.

For the main court yard where you could put things like picnic tables, the big FIRST banners, and practice fields, you could use the area between the stadiums.

If you are wondering if these venues are covered the anwser is Yes and No, The Dome is covered. Relaint Stadium has a retractable roof, so if you want it covered then it is, if you dont then it doesnt. Also both venues are airconditioned. For Reliant Stadium if the roof has to be closed.

I'm excited to see how things are going to run in this new venue in my hometown, besides other reasons. From a Houstonian, (actually a League Citizen and now a TECHsan in Lubbock), to the FIRST community, WELCOME TO HOUSTON!!!
