Re: Running the Kinect on the Robot.

One thing people should not forget about utilizing kinect to auto aim is that the kinect cannot see the clear poly. So team built fields will look very different from the actual field. Also there is a good chance that the practice fields at comp will look different too.

Reference the field tour video to get an idea of what items you might pick up. Also remember there will be people behind that glass.

Right now I'm thinking of using the outside cross formed by the second rows red border and the top player station beam.

I am curious to see what object the kinect can pick up from the front of the key (12') and the top of the key (16').
