Does anyone have any old videos or pictures of tape measure deployment or coils of spring steel unrolling from the 2002 FIRST Competition? If this mechanism is legal for Acer's competition, we can all pick the best of these mechanisms and give Acer some good examples.

292 had a motorized tape measure by the end of the season... it was really neat.

111 had a reliable unrolling steel coil.

535 had a bigger version of a motorized coil... it was very impressive.
