 Dear Mr. Lavery,
Congratulations. For the fourth year running, you have successfully ruined my Christmas holiday with your untimely release of a most obfuscating, but no less tantalizing, hint. - dubious elise [more] |

Re: pic: Team 1501's Scorpion
Weight 118 pounds
 Can hold 11 balls in chute and about 10 more in hopper. However, getting the balls to come down the chute proves to be a problem as they tend to bunch up at the opening hoping to be the first shot out of our cannon  Traction very good. Autonomous looks to be awesome. Once camera locks onto the target light the computer takes over with the shooting. We can shoot on the fly moving towards the scoring target. |

Nice robot, the only thing that I would worry about is the color of some of these other robots. If you get matched up with a green robot your camera may not come in handy!

 We might have a problem with other teams picking up the reflection, of the light, off our robot but I don't think we will pick up other cameras.If another robot picks up the reflection I don't think they will confused. The gold should change the color slightly and any programmer worth his/hers salt should be able to program the camera to ignore it  |

Our camera gets confused by natural light sometimes... I hope that won't be a problem at regionals. I wish I could see yours in action, though Good luck! |
