Re: Autonomy: How Did You Guys Do It?
Our team was going to have encoders on our drive wheels, but we decided they wouldn't be that helpful for the most part. As a result, our automous is drive forward x seconds, move arm down for Y seconds, and retreat. we are using a makeshift encoder for the lift, so we will be able to make it go to the right height. Whether or not this code works will be determined on Thursday.
