What is everybody's favorite new unique aspect of a robot for this year? I liked the use of the gyros for this years game. I had only seen it used once of twice in past years. I also loved what our electronics guy did for us. He designed the wearable backpack that was used to comtrol the arm and big ball grabber for our robot.

It may not be necessarily new, but I loved the lateral steering mechanisms on many of the robots (including the infamous 47 and not-so-well-known 135).
