Robot ``Easter Egg Hunt'' discussion digest
|
The size of the Eggs
If no objections are received before July 25, this proposal will be copied to the Contest definition: SB> Five ``Easter Eggs:'' Diameter between 1cm and 1.5cm, each made by SB> crunching up a sheet of aluminum kitchen foil of about 15 x 15 SB> centimeter. They won't resist rolling, but neither will they roll SB> predictably. Conductive. Can be anywhere on the Playground, SB> except in the gathering area. SB> Competitors who wish to do so may supply their own Eggs. Only SB> aluminum kitchen foil is allowed as material, and they must conform SB> to the above specifications. Ten Eggs should be supplied, so the SB> judges can take a few apart for inspection, and also to have a few SB> in reserve in case of attrition.
Long range Egg sensors
Have been the topic of much discussion, most of it productive :) I hope to do a proper summary soon. But in the mean time, have a gander at this scanning laser device...
