Really? Now I'm very interested. Is it an exceedingly fast arm (how my team and 1523 are doing it), something more like 1625 with a kicker in the gripper, an arm-bot with a shooter as a secondary mechanism, or something so amazingly brilliant that it can't be described with mere words?

1114 design this year is certainly one to watch, i'll place my bets already if 1114 and 1625 get together on Saturday its over... (and i haven't even seen 71 yet... yea i know never bet against hammond). These two bots with there sick kicker grippers are just dominant.

Re: Midwest Regional

Yeah, match 56 looks fun with 1625 and 1114 together, and 1625 has to play Wildstang 3 times in a row tomorrow. That should be fun!

Re: Midwest Regional

Just got back to the hotel after a long day of watching practice, here is one guys opinion on the power-bots here this year:

1114 - Hands down, the best I have seen here so far. Can do a lap in auton, great speed, great ball aquisition, and can shoot the ball halfway down the field.

33 - The killer bees have a great bot again, cool break away arm which lets it keep going after releasing for a hurdle.

16 - Cool shooter, came out weak in the beginning but got strong as practice went on.

1024 - A cool shooter/arm hybrid, one to watch!

111 - WildStang came out of the gate a little slow, but got better. Can place on the rack and hurdle.

101 - A cool shooter arm - yes the arm shoots! Curious to see how they do tomorrow.

Other notables - 2358 and 1038. Very curious to see how this works out! I will have a ton of pics up Sunday, can't upload them until I get home...

Re: Midwest Regional

For all of you out there who are curious about 71: I talked to a friend of mine who was at Midwest today and he said that the Beast was some sort of surgical tubing-powered catapult launcher with swerve on the drive train side of things.

Re: Midwest Regional

1114 is very very much like us, with a roller gripper and a puncher at the back of the gripper, amazingly fast.

As far as the beast goes, picture 118 but full size base with beasts swerve, very very similar launcher and pickup to 118 but no turret.

Re: Midwest Regional

How could someone who can't watch all day, like me for instance, set up a computer and an external hard drive to capture and save the live feed from Midwest for later viewing? I really want to watch a lot of the matches and get a feel for the game, along with the fact that a lot of teams at Midwest will be at both of our Regionals. If anyone knows how I can set a computer up to do this, I would greatly appreciate it.

Re: Midwest Regional

If you already have the hard drive space, get something like VLC player (link). You can watch streams and save them at the same time in any file format or codec you like. At least, it kinda worked when I tried

Disclaimer: I don't know exactly what I'm doing. I've just tried this today and it worked...

It's worth noting that the pickup feature of that robot was not actually demonstrated today.

Any clue about how much disk space per amount of time this used?

Re: Midwest Regional

No idea.... I recorded ~100 seconds and that equated to 10 mb (kinda large!...) You can, however, select the file type and codecs for video and audio, so you may be able to make that smaller (the one I tested was an .avi with mp4 encoding (I think, I'm no expert at this, believe me!))
