Go to Post The driver must have a relationship with the robot, the driver should talk to the robot, speak soft encouraging words to it. Pet names are also a good idea. If the driver does not love the robot, how can the driver learn to trust the robot. - Gboehm [more]

Re: 2010 Silicon Valley Regional
Thanks to all the teams who played with us and against us. It was an exciting weekend all around.

I have said that my only regret is that I never got to see 973 perform up to what I know was their potential. Hopefully we'll get to see what they can really do in Las Vegas.

Incredibly fast, extremely well driven.
I forced some of my kids to watch the webcast on Friday... they were in awe.

Nice work and congratulations!

Totally agree with you on that. We're very happy with how things went and how far we got. It would've been nice to win, but 971, 649 and 254 deserved it. We love our alliance and are only sad we never got those ramps to work. Also, there was something wrong with our right drive train that we still can't diagnose. Hopefully we can learn from it and fix whatever it was for the future!

Yes, we have over 3000 pictures that should be ready very soon.

The photographer we used goes through each picture individually to adjust lighting and color so that he can produce the best possible image, which takes some time. I expect to have them available shortly after Championships.

Here is a sample he sent the other day. Apparently he spent some time in the rafters so there should be some interesting shots!

It's very interesting to see a top view where the robots actually look like the ones in 5th gear... (they all look the same except for the ones with hangers)
