We will need to navigate under something rather large (more than a railing - more like something with limited view from the player's station to the robot - like a large tube, or overhang)

Near Minnetonka MN, there is a company named Recon Robotics. They make reconnaissance robots for gathering data before you go into a hostile environment - (Military or Police industries mostly.)
Near a certain area during game play, we will have to collect data via a human player & then proceed with game play. (Auton/Hybrid in the middle of the match, as has been requested for many years by the programmers).
Or... we will have to collect data while under that obstacle as mentioned previously.

I got nothing for Evergreen in Dover as of right now, but I have to go with the end game will be played on a material that is really green, such as astroturf with the data you are able to collect in the 3rd part of the game heavily used in this part of the game.



In closing, I think this game will step it up with the most types of surfaces & tasks of any game to date.
Can't wait!
I agree with you Elgin Clock, I had a few toughts along the same idea. But, how often do these clues actually pretain to the game. I have not been with first for to long, so I have no idea if they do(I cant remember if last years clues did or not).
