April'21 Marathon Matches | All Updates | Upcoming Matches
Hey Everyone,
Hope you all are safe and doing well!
If you are here right after receiving the newsletter, you need to know we just launched a super exciting NASA Space Suit Detection Marathon Match. With $33,000 in prizes the task is to quantify spacesuit motions from conventional and readily available video and photographs.
Vehical Routing Part -2 Marathon Match results were just announced recently. Congratulations to all the winners and especially @tourist for taking for taking the top spot.
TCO21 Stage 3 leaderboard is now updated with the results of Vehical Routing Part -2 Marathon Match results and we can see that there is a very close fight between the top 5. With MM 125 about to end in a few hours, it will be interesting to see how the leaderboard looks like at the end of the provisional phase. Also, with 3 of top 5 currently competing in the match, who gets to qualify to the finals will completely depend on the system testing results.

Thanks for update, @hmehta. Just to confirm, the NASA spacesuit match is already for Stage 4 together with MM126 / MM127, right?
EDIT: Taking a deeper look at the NASA spacesuit rules, it mentions that teaming is allowed, which I guess would make it ineligible for TCO points. However the match has the TCO21 tag, which is then confusing.
Hey @vdave NASA Match allows teaming and thus is not TCO21 Eligible. The TCO tag has been removed to avoid the confusion.
