Yesterday was the opening of the FRC 2010 robotics competition. The game this year is center around socker for the main purpose of being easy for people that have not study the game (parents and and people that just want to watch) be able to follow it.
I think that one problem with this game is that the rule are a little to limiting and so that there is really one or two types of robots that are really going to work for this competition, and so ever team will have some variation of a theme.
Today was the cams vex compition for the middle school teams that wee mentored by the cams robotics team. I would like to say that there were many teams out there (39 teams), and that without these teams we would not have had the great turnout. I would last like to say that being the MC for most of the day was a lot of fun and compaired to last years middle school compition.
Also today we had two cams teams that went to antother compition, from what I hear one team was knocked out in the qualifying round but wine the programming chalange.
This was the video project for my class this year.
I had to build a cardboard boat for school and today we tested in the pool. The boat was one of two boats out of a class of 10 boats that worked.
