Great job, and I hope we are alliances if we reach the competitions and we win!

Team 1706's robot is more like a 1-man team! I'd be surprised if the other teams just stood at the corner, out of the way, and 1706's bot still beats the other alliance by at least a scale of 10 :D

1706: Please put a go-pro on your bot. I want to see some FPV views from the robot! If seems like some hardware!

get ccmake. run ccmake .. instead of cmake .. that will give a list of features to enable. find all the features you want and get the dependencies! Then, run cmake .. and make -j [#cores in computer]!

Wow, I almost understood that. :eek:

Right now we have working code, so we are taking the approach: "if it aint broke....."

That said, I definitely will be looking to upgrade from 2.3.1 after this season is done. I have a few reason, not the least of which is I want to be able to use OpenCV with both a web cam, or two, and the network cam. Currently the network side is giving me errors that, from some quick searches, can be resolved with a newer version of OpenCV.

I also have some working code that works so well that when I showed it to the team for the first time, they thought i was doing impossible things!

Enough of the bragging :D.

My work ethics (and my inner hacker) tells me that if the code works, save a copy of it and fix it (add features) until it stops working! I started with OpenCV from APT then compiled and installed my own opencv (this time i used common sense instead of tutorials). Then, I got the windows version working and then working alongside with the ds. the best thing is that my code will work with linux/unix/windows!

Now, I need to figure out the socket communication!

Now, I'm working on a vision whitepaper/combo. Here's what I have so far. It's a work in progress. Neg me if you hate it, up me if you like it! ;)

Uploaded as a white paper, then put a link to it on this post.
