Unfortunate 2009 Boston Regional Incident

[Rick Vogl]

During the cleanup and packing of our tools and materials at the Boston Regional yesterday, we noticed that we were missing a small case (similar to the attached photo) which contained our C-RIO robot controller, two analog modules with the breakout bumpers, two digital modules, two CRio power connectors, the KOP gyro, the wireless bridge, the Webcam with the KOP mounting bracket and servos, and few Ethernet cables.

The case was a hard-side black and silver case about 15" x 18" x5" and was located in the area directly behind our pit area. We are hoping that someone picked it up by mistake and will contact us when it is discovered. Unfortunately the outside of the case was not labeled with our team number. The CRio and bridge did have team labels including our ip address.

We would appreciate it if all of the participating 20098 Boston Regional Teams can check through their team materials to see if someone may have inadvertently picked it up by mistake. We have contacted FIRST and BU Security and are hoping for the best.

Please contact me through Chief Delphi if you have any information. Obviously this is a major loss for our team. We are scheduled to compete in two weeks in Hartford and also in Atlanta. Any help you can provide would be much appreciated.
