Re: pic: The Carl Bot

We have a safety line in our build shop, if your beyond the line (green paint on a concert floor) you should have safety glasses on. Its a good practice to get into if the machines are running or not, because it will become second nature.

Re: pic: The Carl Bot

Carl was the name of our FVC bot last year (when it was still vex). This one seems to be a more advanced, hybrid style design. Interesting.

Re: pic: The Carl Bot

Hmm, I think we're going to have to ask FIRST about that, since we didn't get a Carl in our Kit...

Except for the fact that it's made out of tape. And it's a BLUE line. To add to it, there's a container with safety glasses right by the line. The only flaw with our system is when people are doing something with the robot and it's before the line. Many a mentor (and student) have forgotten their safety glasses while standing inches away from the robot.

Imagine: Just got the camera to work the day before. Robot in one room. Driver in another.
Driver: I should bring the controls out here.
Mentor?: You've got a camera!
Driver: You're right, I do! It's good practice!
Robot is driven into table leg...

Re: pic: The Carl Bot

That's a great idea. (:
I remember the suggestions people made of me being the bot, because I'm short... but it didn't work in 07 because I couldn't reach the top row of the rack.
