This Sunday, at Cleveland's Great Lakes Science Center, CWRU's robotic egg
hunt! Admission is free.
Quoting from Prof. Drushel's description from last year:
----
The contest in brief: teams of 2 robots each compete in a walled
arena to collect colored plastic eggs and return them to home base "nests"
distinguished by polarized light beacons. Colored eggs are worth +1 each,
but flat-black eggs are worth -4 points each. Robots on the same team may
cooperate or operate independently. Both offensive and defensive strategies
are allowed (e.g., you can collect black eggs and put them in your
opponent's nest), but destructive strategies are forbidden (e.g., no
chainsaws or blowtorches). Contest rounds last 10 minutes each, and a
modified double-elimination tournament is used to determine the winner.
Detailed information can be found on the course webpage at:

For those of you (most of you) who won't be able to attend in person, we are
also having a live webcast of the Egg Hunt. Click on the picture of Cambot
on the course webpage to get to the webcast.

Hope to see you there! (My team plans to win, of course)
