The FIRST Robotics Competition at VCU, Richmond VA; 2011



John J.("Blue Cheese" team member) invited me and Arvid to Siegel Center at VCU to watch how competition is going.We got lucky having VIP tour there! So video has rules explanation and the "Blue Cheese" (one of the best team) successful performance.

(By the way I have created this video by combining several fragments recorded by Flip. This time I, first  uploaded them to YouTube (short clips are easier to upload); then I combined them using YouTube Editor. That took more than one day to process (!), but was done off-line on the "cloud" without using my computer resources!)
