 What I would really love to see is having the teams try to solve a problem that is real scientists are trying to solve right now. Wouldn't it be cool if a team came up with a robot design that could solve one of the world's worst problems? Talk about FIRST publicity! - Beth Sweet [more] |

Re: The spread of pinching rollers this year
After SVR, we realized how much more important ball possession was than we originally figured, and with help from 254, we had a design in place for pinch rollers.
After a bit of testing, though we realized it didn't help much in our set up, all we needed was the top roller and 2x2 angle centered at the center of the ball. The magic in our setup was a mechanical slip clutch. Worked great kept the ball on the ground.
