Where must your drive team button be displayed on your body?

The drive team button must be displayed above the waist to align with the regulations set forth in the FRC Rebuilt Rules. This requirement is in place to ensure easy visibility and identification of team members who are driving the robot during matches. By requiring the button to be positioned above the waist, it minimizes the chance of it being obscured by clothing or other items, thereby maintaining a clear line of sight for referees and event personnel to confirm who is operating the robot.

In contrast, positioning the button on the wrist, ankle, or chest would not ensure consistent visibility. The wrist could be covered by elements like a jacket or other wrist items, the ankle is typically lower and could be more difficult to see from a distance, and while the chest is a reasonable location, it does not maintain the same standard of proximity to the head height, which is generally what attendees and referees will be looking at in the event. Thus, displaying the button above the waist serves the practical purpose of clarity and compliance in competitive settings.
