Go to Post Titanium is almost twice as heavy as aluminum. I can have the bragging aspect of making a bullet resistant robot, but if someone is coming into a competition and shooting my robot, I have more important things to worry about! - Andrew Blair [more]

Re: CMUcam test rules...

Honestly, to be safe shooting from 20 feet is a very nice distance. I'm sure most teams are going to be going for some sort of range around there or closer to the target. BUT, what happens if you have an awesome defender on you, and you cannot get any closer with timing running out, maybe the only way to make a shot is to fire from 40 ft???? Even if you are not as accurate as you are when you are closer (which is a given), you can still have a CHANCE to make a shot.......If you unload all of your balls at the target, maybe you can hit a few, and turn the match around in your favor. I think having the long ball could end up winning a lot of matches!
