The first phase of each MATCH is 15 seconds long and called
the Autonomous Period (AUTO). During AUTO, ROBOTS operate without any DRIVE
TEAM control or input. ROBOTS attempt to leave their ROBOT STARTING LINE, score
SCORING ELEMENTS, and retrieve SCORING ELEMENTS. There is a 3-second delay
between AUTO and TELEOP for scoring purposes as described in section 6.5Scoring.
The second phase of each MATCH is the remaining 2 minutes
and 15 seconds (2:15) and called the Teleoperated Period
(TELEOP). During TELEOP, DRIVERS remotely operate ROBOTS to retrieve and score SCORING
ELEMENTS and climb their CAGES.
