This is our reasoning for doing a third regional (almost for sure to be Waterloo) and we'll keep that in mind when designing the robot. The robot we used this year barely survived 2 regionals, every single match of the eliminations in Galileo and Einstein, IRI, Kettering Kickoff, and Sweet Repeat (oh the great box of spare parts we've amassed). In my opinion, a third regional forces a little bit more caution and strength into the design.

Why subject your robot to a potential sensor failure when you can train a monkey (or a student, if monkeys are lacking) to put the tube at the right height every time? - JVN [more]
