We have been disussing setting up a booth area to show off our robots and also have a small airsoft robot arena to battle in So far we have Bret , myself and Alequa my brother coming. I made this thread so we are not discussing things off topic on others. Here is trossens arena for ideas but we can make ours different.




Looks like I may pull out the tent and take some pics and see how " big" 10 by 10 ft is for a arena and figure out buildings
OK we pulled the tent out. Very easy to put up! The whole thing is up in 5 minutes.
I took one of the robot bases out of the closet for reference. All the robot bases are about 12" x12"
That's really sweet Josh! I think it will work great!
It looks big enough for what we are doing at least
I'm doing two buildings instead of 4
OK I made a cool score today. Three 19 inch monitors. I gotta find screws for the stand to mount them. I figure three at a time can be for robots and them I can finagle another one to just play YouTube videos of DJ and Ezrobot. I figured bigger is better in terms of screen size so others can see over the participants shoulders.
Really good ideas Josh! I wish I could be there to help. It looks like it will be fun and I'm sure there will be a few EZ-B sales because of this event. I was thinking as well as DJ's youtube videos you could create a slide show of forum members bots to inspire others as well. The box bot all the way up to the big boys. Also the non-bot applications you're making.
Aaah, I like the idea of the slide show, so that could be done through a screen saver very easy.
you can download youtube videos with KeepVid.com. I say that because youtube can sometimes be slow and crappy, and you can stick them all in a playlist on repeat.
