5.2        Areas, Zones, & Markings

FIELD areas, zones, and markings of consequence are described below. Unless otherwise specified, the tape used to mark lines and zones throughout the FIELD is 2 in. (~51 mm) 3M™ Premium Matte Cloth (Gaffers) Tape (GT2), ProGaff® Premium Professional Grade Gaffer Tape, or comparable gaffers tape.

Figure 5‑4 Areas, markings, and zones

-        ALLIANCE AREA: a 30 ft. wide by 13 ft. 8⅜ in. deep (~914 cm by 423 cm) infinitely tall volume formed by, and including the ALLIANCE WALL, CORAL STATION AREAs, the edge of the carpet, and white colored tape perpendicular to the DRIVER STATIONS.

-        BARGE ZONE: a 3 ft. 10 in. deep by 12 ft. 2½ in. long (~117 cm by 372 cm)., infinitely tall, 4-sided volume surrounding the ALLIANCE’S half of the BARGE. It is bounded by and includes the ALLIANCE-colored tape.

-        CORAL MARK: 1 of 6 4 in. by 4 in. (~102 mm by 102 mm) “+” marks used to identify placement of CORAL before the MATCH. Marks are made with black tape.

-        CORAL STATION AREA: a 5 ft. 10⅞ in. wide by 13 ft. 8⅜ in. ft deep (~180 cm by 423 cm) infinitely tall volume bounded by the CORAL STATION, edge of carpet, and ALLIANCE and white colored tape.

-        HUMAN STARTING LINE: a white line spanning the ALLIANCE AREA between the CORAL STATION AREAs that is parallel to and located 2 ft. (~61 cm) from the bottom square tube of the ALLIANCE WALL to the near edge of the tape.

-        PROCESSOR AREA: a 3 ft. 7⅜ in. wide by 7 ft. 6 in. deep (~110 cm by 229 cm) infinitely tall volume formed by, and including, the ALLIANCE colored tape, guardrail, and the PROCESSOR wall.

-        REEF ZONE: an infinitely tall 6-sided, 7 ft. 9½ in. wide (face to face) (~237 cm), volume surrounding the ALLIANCE’S REEF. It is bounded by and includes the ALLIANCE-colored tape.

-        ROBOT STARTING LINE: a black line that spans the width of the FIELD between each REEF and the BARGE. It is positioned such that it is 7 ft. 4 in. (~224 cm) from the REEF.
