Hi.
Cordova High School Team #3227

We have some programming problems.
The program was working fine, but stopped working properly 2 days before ship date. We are currently using Labview, are robot is using Mecanum Cartesian Drive.

Will anybody be willing to help us get our program running at Peachtree?

I'll give it a shot, although I'm not that good at labVIEW (I use Java), but I've done some labVIEW so i may be of assistance. just find me at team 1002's pits (Wheeler CircuitRunners)

I know close to nothing about programming, however, my brother has been our head programmer for two years running now. We would be more than happy to help you out if you run by 3329's pit area on Thursday. PM me and I'll put you in contact with him.

Moderation heads-up: I merged the thread that was erroneously started in General Forum with the pre-existing one in the Regional Competitions forum.

We now continue our regularly scheduled hyping up for Peachtree.

2415 is excited for Peachtree after a good showing in week 1 at Alamo. It will be nice to see some old friends and see how we stack up.

Come by our pits if you're still having issues once you uncrate, I'm sure one of our coders could take a look at it.

Two teams I usually classify as the Powerhouses of the South, but all others improve every year at a great rate per year. You should have a great regional here. Highlighted are teams I expect to play in the finals.

P.S- This short list is not a slight to any of the other Georgia teams, I just don't know the others well.

i completly agree with this patkish.

I must warn though, every year there's at least one team that builds a robot that no one expects.

I wouldn't say the team above is a rookie team, but it's a team that has been dormant for a couple of years and just has this year's game figured out.

From my memory and experience, I think the following teams definitely have a chance at making a solid run. The list is a little long, but there are so many solid teams.
1002
1311
1379
1414
1648
1683
1746
1771
1848
2415
2815

Some of the teams in the list have already been mentioned but some of the other teams either had extremely strong robots in 2007 or have made great improvements. If they even glance at an image of their '07 bots, then I think that we'll see a strong showing at P'tree.

Is anyone planning on streaming Peachtree?

[Anupam Goli]

I'm pretty sure NASA is doing an official webcast, if not providing the source to an unofficial one. You can look at Nasa's site:http://robotics.arc.nasa.gov/events/...rcwebcasts.php

Otherwise Ustream is our friend.

In addition, I was looking at bringing a Flip camera to get a hard shot of the full field. No guarantees about being able to share that during the day, but we should be able to share that afterward on YouTube or TBA* without too much fuss.

*I know TBA prefers the big-screen feed...but hey, we've got what we've got.

How many of you are going to come to the Peachtree Social this year?

[ghostmachine360]

I might, depending on my advisors. When is the social, Thursday night or Friday night?

The usual Friday night.

We're trying to get more inflatables this year.
