To me, what is most impressive to me is this --

There are many teams that will build their robot, ship it, and compete with it in some events and just fix things when they break. They would be 'satisfied' and take a rest.

Knowing 148 and their mentors, they will take the "design is an iterative process" philosophy and continue to update, revise, modify and improve this machine all they way through the Championships and the machine in April will be much different from the machine that goes into a crate on February 23rd. They will see what other teams have done, they will see what works and what does not, they will see how this game plays out on the field and make the adjustments and maybe make major changes.

That is how great teams do it, and that is how great companies do it.

If you have not, read JVNs design paper, read it.

And once again, great job 148!
