Re: Robots: Behind the Design Who is submitting?

The X-CATS submitted for the Motorola Quality Award we received at the Finger Lakes Regional. It definitely wasn't a trivial task. We had tons of pictures to pair through and also luckily enough Xerox is our sponsor since we had a DocuColor 12 Printer at our site to print the High Res Photo quality prints they requested. It took over hours to print the pictures since the TIFF files were close to 300 MB per Batch. The Write up is also sometimes very redundant with repsect to the questions they asked.

All in all the 1 month time limit was a stretch still. We had it sent it the day before and it made it on the last day at FIRST that noon with USPS express mail.

Luckily we'll get a chance to see it in print. Good luck to the rest of the teams submitting.
