EDIT: So, I'm an idiot. That's AM time and I don't work on Tuesdays, but I do have class. Still have to catch a few matches on archive.

behind me are 2 computers that are planning to webcast tomorrow. They were having some problems with the capture today when testing then the team needed to work on their robot. after the matches today they are going to be working on it. Assuming that the webcast does happen it will be on the nasa site in the morning.

The way it looks now, there isn't going to be any webcast due to technical difficulties which we can't resolve. We will try to archive the matches and upload them to SOAP.

A shame. And I was looking forward to watching tomorrow morning and trying to get my coworkers into it...

Oh well, there's always archived footage.

Just coming back from today's practice :-)

had lots and lots of fun,

and... may I say... we kicked some major (rookie and veteran's teams) butts!!!


we had this one team banging at us hard without stopping.. broke our GRIPPER,
"paralized" our baby for a few hours (we also had to find another BANEBOT engine )

but at the end of the day wer'e happy


P.S, don't expect any autonomous from us tomorrow, suprisingly, we had serius problems with the cam, hoping to get it fixed by wednesday.

I have not been able to get the feed to work this morning. Has anyone else had success or is there a problem with the feed for everyone?

There is not going to be a webcast, which is why you are having problems with it..

[3dude_2231]

you think?

BTW, those pins of you are classic

all of you had to be there to see the judges laughing at Greg

The second day was great. There are a lot of good robots, and it seems that the finals will be loaded with tubes.

Although we couldn't get the webcast to work, we have high quality recordings of all the matches and awards which we plan to upload to SOAP (we have to reduce the quality on the videos because they are about 120 megs per match).

Currently Miscar 1574 is leading with a 7-0-1 balance and a high score of 94. Hopefully our team will do better tomorrow (we had a lot of technical problems today which made us lose almost all our matches).
