Regarding the number of buttons the robot can have: can we have a button to turn the robot on and off and another for the LoPs? Or just 1 button?
Please refer to rule 3.2.10: " Robots must be equipped with a single physical binary switch/button (with exception of buttons that are a part of commercial controller), clearly visible to the referee, for starting the robot at the begining of the run and when a lack of progress occurs. Procedure performed
after LoP occurs can only include this button and at most one more switch for cutting the
power. Team has to notify the referee about their LoP procedure before each scoring run, and
only this procedure is allowed to be performed after a LoP. "
Two buttons are OK.
