Re: Update 15
Can someone explain what this means???
WPA Encryption Update: As announced in Team Update 13, FRC will be implementing the use of WPA encryption at all FRC events in 2009. Each team must have their WPA encryption checked before they play any match, including a practice match. Once the WPA encryption has been confirmed, teams will receive a white sticker, which will then gain them access to the Competition Field. The stickers are available at the WPA table, which is located in the pit near the Inspection area. The WPA table staff will be able to not only check the encryption for teams who set it themselves, but also help teams who have trouble or are uncomfortable setting the radio parameters. February 24, 2009 When you go to the table to have your WPA encryption checked, you must bring with you, at minimum, your team’s robot radio. You may bring your complete robot, but in that case, must also bring a battery. The table will be available into Thursday afternoon. Thanks. |

Re: Update 15
If you have a working robot at the event, then you have what you need. Just bring it to the WPA table to have it checked.

Each team will get a sheet Thursday morning listing the WPA code for that team's radio, along with instructions on how to load it. Each team must then bring their radio (or robot, if it's hard to remove the radio) to the "WPA Table" to verify the correct code is loaded, and get the sticker indicating it's been done. Any teams that need help with loading the code can get assistance at the WPA Table. Please note that no robot will be allowed onto the playing field without the sticker. Also, for teams going to more than one regional, the WPA codes are unique to the event, so you will need to get a new code at each event. Finally, the codes are for communication security, so do not share your team's code or leave the sheet listing it laying around. |

Re: Update 15
Will we need to disable it after a regional?

Re: Update 15
Dear FIRST,
Thank you, thank you, thank you! Edit: If I have free time, I may work on a PHP script to parse the Twitter messages and display them in an easier to read format (140 characters can be difficult). Actually, it would be pretty cool if something like this could be implemented in a CD-Spy like feature. Last edited by artdutra04 : 24-02-2009 at 15:39. |

Re: Update 15
I'm glad info about super cells/empty cells/moon rocks is being posted. If this data feed is reliable, a whole bunch of needless scouting was just cut out. Woo!

If anyone wants to cook up some gateway scripts to mirror this Twitter data and store it in a easy to access way, we'd be happy to let you host them on The Blue Alliance. I haven't done any of this stuff myself, but I can only assume parsing a whole bunch of twitter data on demand is much, much slower than a sql query. It would be cool to have a scouting data system that works much in the way that the TBA API works now. Google's App Engine might also be a neat, free way to host this.

Should be looking fairly decent by Friday's qualification matches. |

Re: Update 15
Since I anticipate them sending something out every 15 seconds in a match or similar, you might want to have more info included on the page. Also you could make a page for every event.

Here is a bit of info for you from Wikipedia on Twitter. However, as one old dinosaur to another, just step back and watch the fun... Regards, Mike |
