I love the stories you shared. When I was a team member 20 years ago (oh my god it was 20 years ago...), we did all kinds of wild hacky stuff. Our entire robot chassis was made from PVC and we felt super clever using the hollow tubes for cable management. These days they put QR codes all over the field for vision processing. It's absolutely !@#$ing wild to see what some of the better robots can do in 15 seconds of full autonomy. We also had a laptop that ran off a car battery =D Though we could afford a new laptop this year, so we finally don't need to use it as much.
