Bridge Battle is played on a 12’x12′ square field configured as seen above. Two alliances – one “red” and one “blue” – composed of two teams each, compete in a match. Matches consist of a twenty-second autonomous period followed by two minutes of driver-controlled play. The object of the game is to attain a higher score than your opponent alliance by placing tennis balls and bonus balls into goals. In addition, an alliance can earn additional points by “parking” robots on either of the two platforms. A bonus is awarded to the alliance that has the most total points at the end of the Autonomous Period.
