Re: Learn the history of FIRST games

Arguably fastest ball collecting system ever was designed by 95 in 2002.

But along the lines of this thread, old games are an exceptional way to teach yourself about FIRST strategy. Karthik and Grady are both really good at strategy, and they're both walking FIRST history textbooks.

That thing was such a beast. I remember watching them drive across the side of the field sucking up balls so fast that the balls even flew out of the top off their storage tank.

Re: Learn the history of FIRST games

I created a powerpoint just for this purpose, and spent an entire meeting 2 weeks ago going over the past 5 years games with pictures of the field, and a match for each year with some fairly good robots from that year.

I'll post it as soon as I can figure out how to get all the videos up with it.
