Re: Q|reflective rope

I know the stuff exists, both a glass-bead and a non-glass-bead variant, there should also be retroreflective fibers/string on the market somewhere...Example retroreflective Vaient: http://www.volvocars.com/uk/about/hu...ects/lifepaint And the article: https://www.wired.com/2015/03/lifepa...lective-paint/ My favourite quote from the article: Quote:

Re: Q|reflective rope
R07(c): Any devices or decorations specifically intended to jam or interfere
with the remote sensing capabilities of another ROBOT, including vision systems, acoustic range finders, sonars, infrared proximity detectors, etc. (e.g. including imagery on your ROBOT that, to a reasonably astute observer, mimics the retro-reflective features of vision targets described in Section 3.13 Vision Targets) Even though this rule is about the robot, I think that its better to be safe than sorry and apply it to the rope to. |

This starts down the tricky path of intent. I would argue that the rope could be painted with retro-reflective coating, at least acorrdinget to just this rule. Partly because the rope would not reasonable be within the line of sight of opposing robots while they are trying to take shots. That said there are many other options for tracking a rope. They do make rope with retro-reflective braids woven in. Additionally bright colored neon rope could serve the exact same purpose. Obviously I am not an authority figure and you should not take my answer as anything but the possible lawyeringredients of the rules. |
