Team 1658 3 ball autonomous routine in 8 seconds(practice bot)
 

Will add function to move forward as well and potentially hot goal targeting. As it is now we will always get at least 1 ball and 2 if we are lucky but may try to squeeze out another 5-10 points for maximum pointage if we can hit hot goals every time

Video or it didn't happen.

oh i'm sorry https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ladI...ature=youtu.be

Did not expect that. When everything popped out I was rather surprised. Nice work!

Re: Team 1658 3 ball autonomous routine in 8 seconds(practice bot)
 

That's actually thoroughly fantastic, and one of the most unique mechanisms I've seen this year. Really cool.

Re: Team 1658 3 ball autonomous routine in 8 seconds(practice bot)
 

Good job!!! That is so cool guys. I love your guys technique for the triple autonomous.:cool:

I call it the spread eagle though i'm not sure how appropriate that name is.... lol

ye we tend to come up with strange ideas. we probably use the strangest drive as well. We are just a strange team i suppose =p it seems overly complicated with about a hundred parts but hey it's super effective and designed to be repairable within just a few minutes so we should be fine... i hope

uhhhh... :yikes:

Re: Team 1658 3 ball autonomous routine in 8 seconds(practice bot)
 

now i just gotta make it move for 5 more points and maybe add hot goal detection for another 5-10 points. then it will be as good of an autonomous as theoretically possible for a single robot. the 2 remaining seconds should be enough time for that right..... right? xD

You only have 1 or two seconds before teleop starts so I don't think you will be able to move to your color zone during auto when doing triple autonomous. You might have time but it is iffy. And having vision tracking will take to much time during tripel auto but you might have time during double auto if you had vision tracking.

I believe! This is enough to win most matches on its own already.

Although, I'd focus on making a perfect two ball auton. I think it's safe to assume that you will have a partner in elims that can do a single ball auto.

Re: Team 1658 3 ball autonomous routine in 8 seconds(practice bot)
 

[quote=Jeffy;1351527]Well your partner in elims might be a defensive or goalie bot(rarely). And even if it is elims having a triple auto work like it did in that video, would get them a lot of points.

you are thinking too linearly, there is plenty of time to move forward and do vision tracking. these functions don't have to be serialized they can all happen at the same time. the only thing required is that when a ball is actually being shot forward that the robot not move, otherwise the other tasks can happen at the same time as the rest of the routine meaning it won't require any additional time and we should still have about a 2 second margin, even if it takes a little longer i think 20% margin(2/10 seconds) is enough time, if just barely

[quote=Jeffy;1351527]that was the idea from the start, is maximize auto points, do 2-4 balls during teleop with 2 or 3 assist and we should average around 200 points a game hopefully. we did 3 ball autonomous because we believe we can make it work 100% every time so even if another robot can do it unless they are confident it will go in 100% we want to be able to do it ourselves and be 100% sure. can't let those points go to waste.
