Re: **FIRST EMAIL**/Invitation to Beta test the New Control System

Good Afternoon Teams,

Please join me in congratulating the 2009 New Control System Beta Test teams. Let me tell you, it was a real challenge to choose only 18 teams from all of the well qualified applicants. I have already contacted these teams to share the good news and will ship them their supplies as soon as the beta test kits are complete. The beta test teams will begin to share their results with everyone shortly after receiving their kits. Stay tuned, I’ll let you know where to find their comments.

16 Bomb Squad, Mountain Home, AR
39 39th Aero Squadron, Falcon Robotics, Gilbert, Phoenix, AZ
67 HOT – Heroes of Tomorrow, Milford, MI
79 Team Krunch, Palm Harbor, FL
103 Cybersonics Technology Team, Kintnersville, PA
330 BeachBot, Hermosa Beach, CA
340 Greater Rochester Robotics, Churchville, NY
476 Wildcats, Ponca City, OK
499 Toltechs, San Antonio, TX
668 The Apes of Wrath, San Jose, CA

330 getting it means most of SoCal will, too. Coalition application, with about half a dozen teams.

No teams in New England at all. No teams even close geographically.

Re: **FIRST EMAIL**/Invitation to Beta test the New Control System

Who's farthest away?

Our closest is 300 miles. Doesn't make me real happy but I know there has to teams further away than that.

Team 103 is honored to be selected as one of the beta testing teams. Over the coming weeks we will be posting updates, on a seperate thread as to what types of meetings and seminars we will be hosting to educate the surrounding teams.

They're supposed to. Closest team with one: 330 and friends. Info distribution is already planned.

All the Hawaii teams are about 2500 miles away from a beta. International teams are probably even worse off.

Re: **FIRST EMAIL**/Invitation to Beta test the New Control System

woot woot 103!

I so can't wait to hear what these guys have in store for all of us PA and NJ teams. Should be seeing some pretty sick ideas.

Even if your team didn't receive a new system, would teams care to share some innovative ideas they have and sent in with their application? I for one want to see the ideas some teams have of what they will try with the new system.

These are some ideas that my friends and I had that we will be implementing during the season hopefully. All student ideas and we have planned how they would work. Please post up any ideas you have.

Oh. I was not aware of that. They would be pretty close for most of NE. Thanks.

Re: **FIRST EMAIL**/Invitation to Beta test the New Control System

Perhaps someone should consider starting a new thread soon, starting with the list of beta test teams and ideas for coordination of testing and documentation communication efforts?

Re: **FIRST EMAIL**/Invitation to Beta test the New Control System

I suggest thread titles from teams heading up their areas. IE:

"Beta Testing with team 103- NJ, PA, NY"

whoever creates the threads, please try to keep them in the same format so its easier for teams to find what they're looking for.
