Glow-in-the-dark air hockey! Idk how I just thought of that but perhaps the tape measurers could be used as pucks?
For some reason, I’ve found myself on here more in the past few weeks than I have all build season.
Did anybody else think that they may just turn off the lights on the field, or block the vision of the drivers making us rely on our vision systems. They wouldn’t have to do it for the whole field either, just make us go through a maze tunnel or something that you can’t see but have reflective tape on the floor making your robot follow the tape to get through. (just a thought, but it would be cool).
2008 had a Pepper’s Ghost setup where robots disappear. Probably unintentional, but still maddening to the drivers. Now you know why the robots had trouble turning at the far end.
WE HAVE TO BUILD OUR ROBOTS IN THE COMPLETE DARK.
only possible explanation
If the government stays shut down long enough, we may have to :ahh: :rolleyes:
I doubt it.
This game seems to be pretty interesting no matter what may happen… I can hardly wait until the kickoff
I was trying to insert an arbitrary “no government = no power” joke.

You are beating me I cant wait for my final kickoff as a student!!!
O.o I can’t tell what I’m more fascinated by… These guys and their awesome skills or the thought of doing them on an FRC field with robots in the dark.
On a side note, I love how much is obviously getting done on that site though.
Guys, Obviously its a glow in the dark, underwater, tape measure game
I feel like a game done completely in the dark with night vision cameras or something would be pretty awesome. Except for the audience. Maybe it’s a mapping game?
Coincidence?

you need light to see at the bottom of the ocean and to help measure how far down you are. water game. in the dark.
Well as for your whole theory…not so sure. But glow in the dark/lighted tapemeasure is most likely a game hint. Possibly a game in the dark? or with blacklights?
It may be some object placement game, maybe like logomotion. We have had these types of competitions before, and if you notice, FRC really just makes a few modifications to their game every year, so it is a possible game!
I at least dont think its a shooting game… our team is bad if anything leaves the robot
What if its Ice
100% coolness facture
