I don't know where I heard they didn't, but thanks for correcting me!

We didn't have vision, but we weren't that successful anyways

120 did not use vision processing. They had a clear plastic sheet over the camera feed on their laptop with markings for the goal.

I would like to give a shout out to 5813, Morpheus, rookies from Concord, New Hampshire. They were putting at least 7-8(maybe more?) high goals in the Galileo division. They also had an effective intake/cheval mechanism and the capability to auto the Cheval.

Their robot was a great example of designing to one's capability, and they showed that vision wasn't needed to be elite. They were also very fun to work with at WPI and Battlecry!

1058 also comes to mind. I think I remember seeing them do 9-10 high goals in a match.

I second this. I remember after last year's Battle of the Bay, I gave them a shout-out for their crazy good off-season bot as a pre-rookie. Was beyond blown away with what they built for 2016 and how well both the robot and team performed, can't wait to see what this team does over the upcoming years.

I'll throw in my suggestion for 4564. #1 seed at WPI, Semifinalists, #1 seed at NECMP, Finalists, and only a flashlight.

Here's the best match, 9 high goals and a climb. No flashlight or camera. https://youtu.be/ZwAIS9kCU_w
