This is used in our FTC field perimeter. This is a single sheet of 3 mm thick polycarbonate (PC) plastic, cut to 10.66 x 46.67.
This single sheet of PC will be shipped with the protective covering on both sides of the plastic sheet with the exception of a ~1 in. strip on the long edges. As we use this for our FTC panels, we clear of this section to insert into the rails. Expect to have a small strip removed with possible razor blade line.
Polycarbonate was invented in 1963 by Dan Fox at General Electric. GE's trade name for this plastic is LEXAN, but it also is sold under other trade names (Makrolon, Hyzod, Cyrolon).
This material is NOT plexiglas or acrylic, as we don't suggest that you use that material on a mobile robot, since acrylic will easily shatter.
