That's a flash movie with clips from videotaped matches, probably with a camera on their robot. You can make one too, using Macromedia's Flash MX suite.

ok thanx

[pedro]

We actually pluged a video camera's input into FIRST's footage thing and captured our matches. But yeah, this is just a flash animation with movie clips.

cold fusion ... nice selection ... very unique ... site looks nice ... greenish

good job

[pedro]

Yeah, I think we're probably the only FIRST team to use ColdFusion, which is a very clean and straight forward language. If there are any other teams out there, please make yourselves known (we might start a FIRST ColdFusion community )

another team using cfm ... team 108 : http://www.soap108.com/

they seem to have a nice big database

How did you get the actual FIRST footage directly? What equipment do you need?

[pedro]

a video camera, and that's is. Then you can transfer the footage to your computer.

[K.Shaw]

sounds difficult! LOL!! jk

[pedro]

if you have usb or firewire on your computer (then some software like iMovie or Movie MAker) then you can just capture it right off. It wasn't hard at all...

[K.Shaw]

i was just joking i know its not hard

TitanRobotics.Net has just won the website design award at the Pacific Northwest Regional in Portland, OR! I guess all the hard work has finally paid off!

This is the second year in a row that we have won the website award!
