New Vid

Did you guys notice that a new video is up:

http://www.hitecrobotics.com/robonova/video.htm

It's overproduced, overdramatic, and overlong, but still fun to watch. My "favorite" part isn't the silly music but the dramatic camera sweeps/zooms. Hah!

By the way, I noticed that some, but not all, of the 'Novas in the vid had black rectangular boxes on their left (port) shoulders. The boxes were clearly connected to the board via a wire trailing out the back. These look like sensors of some kind to me, but I can't say for sure. Anyone have more info?

What's the little black box sitting on their shoulder? Radio link of some sort ? Guess you'd need something like that to sync them up.
