Figure 5‑5 HUB

A HUB is one of two 47in by 47in (~1.19m by 1.19m) rectangular prism structures with an extended opening at the top surface. Each ALLIANCE has a dedicated HUB centered between two BUMPS located 158.6in (~4.03m) away from their ALLIANCE WALL. Each HUB has a set of exits that randomly distributes FUEL into the NEUTRAL ZONE. A net structure located in the back of the HUB prevents FUEL launched from most prohibited areas from entering the opening.

Figure 5‑6: HUB distance to the ALLIANCE WALL

The top of each HUB has a 41.7in (~1.06m) hexagonal opening into which ROBOTS can deliver FUEL. The front edge of the opening is 72in (~1.83m) off the carpet.

Figure 5‑7: HUB Dimensions

HUBS have a series of exits at the base of the HUB facing towards the NEUTRAL ZONE. FUEL processed through the HUB are distributed into the NEUTRAL ZONE via one of four exits as shown in Figure 5‑8. Examples of FUEL distribution from the HUB can be found on the Playing FIELD webpage.

The top angles of the HUB are lit by DMX light bars that indicate if the HUB is active. See Table 5‑3 for more details about the various light states in the HUB.
