I'm in a robotics competition called VEX IQ and this years challenge is called challenge bank shot.
The photo below is the field where the competitors drive their robots. The main part of the competition is two person diver control in which two different teams participate for shared points. They way it works is that after the points are scored each team gets that amount of points even if one team did nothing. This is evened out because there are multiple rounds. One way to score points is to get the orange balls on the opposite side of the pipe fence in the back for one point each. Another way is to shoot balls in the blue bucket in the back for three points each.The last two ways are emptying the cutouts on the blue ramp in the front for one point each and having one robot completely on the ramp for ten points and two robots for 25. Each round is one minuet and the goal is to score as many points as possible. It is a fun challenge and I will be showing and explaining my robot in future posts.

This is very interesting. I'm not that much into programming and robotics, but I have one friend that talks to me about this because he is very interested in it himself. I am trying my hardest to learn, but from what you have said it is very interesting and I would like to know more about it.
