Umm... uhhh... well... gosh... thank you... uhh...

Well, Andrew is the lead programmer this year (I believe you know I'm in college now...) and there's some other smart programmers there too. I'm sure they'll come up with something cool.

I have to admit it would have been fun programming this year. Since so much of the robot's motion is in sliding friction mode you could come up with some really fun crab control code using inertial sensors as feedback... and the CAMERA... holy cow...

I'm hoping to see at least one robot that uses some kind of curve fitting to predict the motion of a trailer in order to lead the target effectively when shooting...

Well, I guess we'll all just have to wait and see.
