Dear Participants,
In the competition halls only the official WLAN provided for the competitions is allowed to be operated and it is to be used by robots only. Private WLAN access points are not allowed.
This well known regulation is absolutely necessary for a good performance of the competitions. Any single exception from this rule, must be explicitly allowed and registered by LOC.
However, still several private WLAN access points continue to being operated in the competition halls. These are significantly impacting the performance of the robots in the regular competition. Such behavior is highly unfair to the other teams.
Therefore, LOC asks all teams operating such private WLAN access points to shut them off immediately.
Today and in the following competition days LOC will perform regular monitoring rounds in the competition halls.
Any violations against this important rule of the house will be consequently sanctioned from now on:
All members of the team operating a non allowed WLAN access point will be immediately expelled from the competitions halls for the whole day. Upon repeated violation, they will be excluded from entering the venue for the rest of the competitions.
We kindly ask for your understanding and cooperation.
会場では、オフィシャル以外のWLANを使っちゃダメです。
もし、勝手にWLANを使っていたら、追い出すぞ・・・みたいな感じです。
そもそもメジャーと一緒の会場なんだから、(競技に許可された以外の)無線を使っちゃダメというのはロボカップの常識だと思うのですが・・・
今年のジャパンオープンでも、「何で無線キーボードや無線マウスを使っちゃいけないの」と怒鳴り込んできたメンターがいたとか・・・(苦笑)
ロボカップの常識を知らない人が多いんだなぁ。
