HAPPY THANKSGIVING

Happy thanksgiving everyone, hope youre all binge eating by now...

I lieu of a picture of a turkey that I drew on top of an outline of my hand, (It was really good) I give you all this behind the scenes of a generic SKYTV Broadcast, one Europe's biggest 3D eng/sng companies.



If you've got six min to bask in all the stereoscopic live broadcast glory I'd highly recommend it.

Have a nice day!!

Roll 24 Productions was also there! and doing our thing. All went reasonably well on our end, running two cameras for the stream and archive, and PA and IMAG feeds for the house.

HEEEEEEY Robot Remix

I know I'm running a little late on this one, but the first annual Houston Robot Remix was october 27th.


All in all I'd say that this event was a great success!

     The Actual competition ran very smoothly, and I'm pretty sure everyone that participated would agree that it was a lot of fun to end the season with one last big event close to home. The webcast also went super awesome!! Michael Fore has officially been added to the Roll 24 team, this was his first event producing and he did crazy well, most people don't handle being tossed to the sharks quite as well. We also used all six of our cameras, which is the most we've used at a robotics event so far. We were really trying to make a positive impression on the local FRC coordinators, and hopefully we did!

Click through the break for photos and match videos!

(Also, more Houston Vex this Friday and Saturday!!!)
