Googly Eyes?

Team 2491 is wondering if anyone has spare large googly eyes serving the purpose of better telling the front from the back of our robot for our driver. We also thought googly eyes would be a fun touch! We tried pit admin but (pretty understandably) we were denied.

If you are able and willing we are in Daly!

Don’t do it, they sabatoge your robot. We worked fine, put on googly eyes and then our entire can bus broke. I swear they have ghosts in them.

The pit admin filter is bad at their job…that’s a valid request.

Wait you didn’t get the 5% performance boost?!?!

I can’t believe this.

I’d recommend bright tape, rather than googly eyes. It will be easier to see from across the field.

Yeah, that’s a valid parts request, idk why it would’ve been turned down.

It was starting to get a little late at the time so that was a probably part of it.

Countering @Cynosure’s point, 1672 uses googly eyes every year to create an easy-to-understand frame of reference. This year, the eyes faced backwards, in order to trick the opposing alliance (and definitely not because of lack of planning). We love 'em and recommend that all teams in FRC join us in googly eyes gang!

We have googly eyes on our intake. I will check with our team and see if we packed spares in the toolbox.

You can also check in with Team 587. They always carry spare googly eyes and love to share.

Thank you! I checked with 587 and I don’t think they had any.

Wow! That is so unlike them. Maybe they gave them all out already.

I’ve asked the students if we have extras. Stop by our pit and check with the pit crew.

You were actually the first people I asked after I saw your intake. It it possible that I just asked the wrong person at 587.

Thank you 4499 The Highlanders for the eyes!
