FIRST Robotics Colorado Regional 2014Posted: April 05, 2014As long as I can remember I have gone to this tournament. But this person's head is exactly the definition of the spirit of FIRST robotics.Spirit of FIRSTAs long as I can remember I have gone to this tournament. But this person's head is exactly the definition of the spirit of FIRST robotics.The PitsThey moved the pits from last year. They used to be on the other side of the arena, but there were 52 teams there this year. There are usually mid-lower 40's. ExcitementMCThis guy has been the MC for several years, and he is really good at it. He has more energy than me on 4 cups of coffee. Dual ShotThis was during the autonomous mode, where the robot were programmed to shot the ball automatically. Cool that both these robots did it at the same time.DancingRobotsGame BallsThese were the game balls. They were 2ft diameter balls that the robots had to get into the goals and over the center structure. List of Sponsors - WolfI was excited to see Wolf on this list. I know we sponsor teams, but I don't actively look for our logo on the bots.ShootingOvershootAll the NerdsThe Game ArenaThis is the game arena. The objective is to get the balls into the ends, either the bottom corners or way up high. Then also getting the ball over the bar in the center. There are other points for passing the ball between robots and scoring as well.
