Hello Programmers
 

Hi! to all the programmers and this year's game "Aim High" is pretty exciting especially the scoring part of it. I was just wondering how you guys are going to using programming aspect (for e.g. to aim, to move, to shoot) and What sensors you guys will be using. Have a great season!!!! :)

Re: Hello Programmers
 

I'd be willing to say that the majority of us have very little idea of what our robot is going to even look like. Check back in a week and you'll be able to get some details. :)

Good luck all!

How's the answer we have ideas, but nothing for sure? I know some sensors I would very much like to use for this year, but what we will use depends on what the whole team decides to build, and what we can actually get working. I already have ideas on using the camera, encoders, a gyro, POTs, and the photogate sensors, but we'll see what actually happens.

Re: Hello Programmers
 

At this point in time, it's hard to know which sensor will be necessary as most robots are still just dream in our heads. However, I recommend knowing how the camera and pots work and can be incorporated into the system.

We have a tank like structure were going to use. but me and the other programmers are just learning C programming. I'm comming from C++, and the other two is from HTML. so we better learn quikly!!

Re: Hello Programmers
 

Going from C++ to C isnt to bad. But from HTML to C. They are in no way similiar. Hope you guys get coded whatever you are going to try and do.

Re: Hello Programmers
 

Yea, C++ to C should be no problem at all.

If they used PHP with HTML, then they shouldn't have any major problems, but straight HTML to C.. ugh.

Re: Hello Programmers
 

They just started HTML, they don't know what PHP is. but we are using Easy C combined with MPLAB to help program our robot. I already know the defult code inside out, now all we need to do is program it.
