Boilermaker Regional Webcast Online!

[Mr. Lim]

AM I GOING CRAZY?!

I think I just witnessed the greatest tetra cap EVER.

234 spun around a little out of control in the last seconds of the match of Q15. The tetra they were holding flew off the arm, and got airborne. It was heading straight for the middle driver station, but somehow caught the top of the goal, and stacked itself perfectly...

The robot was still about 6 feet away from the goal...

UN-BE-LIEV-ABLE!

The capture card only has a single (line-level) input and it is connected to the live level output provided by the A/V guys, so not much I can do there.

I found a gain control in the encoder program itself that I just lowered so let me know if it sounds better. However, it may already have been clipped before it gets there so it may not help.

So while it's illegal to do this by design... If you could consistently do it by accident, you'd be okay.

Anything that's consistently done by accident tends to be in reality done by intent and if that move is illegal, it's much frowned upon to do it...

i saw that too, though i thought it was one of the other bots...

either way, it just beat the vault by 190 over 237 at river rage...i hope that they recorded match 15, so i can watch the replay.

Dave,
Think you found it sound much better now, only cracks every once and a while. Thanks again for the great webcast.

I believe that is the announcers voice cracking =)

[Stephen Kowski]

maybe I missed it, but what was the 10 pt penalty in match 22....Maybe I misheard, but I thought the announcer said there was a 10 pt penalty for aggressive play....please someone correct me or whatever....

[Ryan Albright]

71 and 111 going against each other in that match that was a great match. Alot of scoring hmmm we will see who won

Edit: 84-26 blue alliance with team 71 very nice

[Alaina]

Ohh I want to see it!!!!
But I can't!!!
My computer at home is too slow, so I hear the commentary but there's only still shots ever 10 seconds or so...
And the computers at school won't allow me to stream it (grrr network rules)


Edit: OMGZ IT'S WORKING! *is happy*
Go Wildstang!!1!

[Josh Hambright]

watch the unnoficial webcast, with the audio you can almost imagine yourself sitting behind the scoring table

Ohh and the matches and results were updates on indiana first around lunch here, we might mirror them again tonight, though i might take it down since first is no longer posting the match results on their site, atleast not at this time they aren't until some issues are worked out.

At peachtree we just used the clock instead of the realtime scoring (even though it didn't work). The production people were complaining about having to shoot so wide.

I'm sure if you mentioned it to the production people (even though they should see it), they shoot wider.

Please note that it could take up to 10 seconds for the video to appear after you connect, so please be patient!

Update 15 added a 10 point penalty to <G25> which is the rule about aggressive play.
