Re: Are FIRST robots actually robots?

just cause it doesn't move during auto doen't mean its not a robot

the way I define a robot is something that takes electronic data, interprets it with a macro/microcomputer, then with mechanical devices manipulates physical objects

well what is the OI other than a set of electronic sensors(analog sensors and digital sensors)
the way I see it is the OI sends data to the robot then the robot interprets the data and does something physical

is a airplane a robot . . yes(the new ones with the fly by wire thing)
is a RC car a robot . .yeah why not
is a microwave a robot . . yes . .but only if it has a spinning tray(otherwise its purely electronic)
