Our Technology Manager received a letter in the mail earlier this week from 'BotsIQ'. They have a division here in the southwestern Pennsylvania area, and are looking to expand their competition to 48 teams for their 2009 event. Even though completion of the application does not ensure us a spot (something about a lottery system), we are thinking about applying nonetheless.
My big question is, has anyone heard of BotsIQ? And what it is, exactly? It sounds like it has some school curriculum behind it, and the competition itself is basically "battle bots". Anyone who knows of this, or has participated, please explain in detail what BotsIQ is all about, and if you think it would be a good secondary project for our FIRST team. Thanks!

studies have shown that postive feedback works better. Driver should get a shock until he obtains target lock, then it stops.
