1. Control System New control system: roboRIO – Allows for programming over the USB device port

2. Control System roboRIO includes integrated 3-axis accelerometer Vastly improved reboot times No reboot required when deploying new code roboRIO should only be imaged over USB Ethernet cables over 30m (98 ft) should not be used

3. roboRIO 512 MB nonvolatile storage 256 MB DDR3 RAM at 533 MHz 16 bit-wide data bus 3-axis integrated accelerometer at 800 samples/sec with range of 8g Running NI Linux Real-Time OS Windows required to program

4. Communication and Control During matches: D-Link Wireless Bridge required for communicating with the robot – Configured at each event roboRIO, Wireless Bridge, and Driver Station Software must all be configured to their corresponding team

5. Gameplay (Autonomous) 15-second autonomous No direct or indirect communication with driver station during autonomous mode – Use of devices such as webcam prohibited Scoring –All robots in auto zone: 4 points –All yellow totes in auto zone: 6 points –All yellow totes stacked: 20 points –All recycling containers scored: 8 points

6. Gameplay (Autonomous) Any game pieces can be moved; only yellow totes and recycling containers receive autonomous-specific points Yellow containers have retro-reflective tape along both long edges

7. Gameplay (Teleoperated) 2 minute 15 second teleoperated period Scoring –Scored gray tote: 2 –Scored recycling container: 4 per level –Litter scored in/on recycling container: 6 per recycling container –Litter scored in landfill: 1 –Unprocessed litter: 4 to opposing alliance –Coopertition set: 20 for each alliance –Coopertition stack: 40 for each alliance

8. Gameplay (Teleoperated) Yellow totes can only be used for Coopertition points Gray totes only gain points when placed on scoring platform; can be placed on Coopertition step Coopertition stack overrides points from Coopertition set Coopertition stack must only be standing for 3 seconds to receive points

9. Gameplay (Teleoperated) Game pieces in a scoring position but definitely or possibly supported by robot award no points
