Re: Sasquatch Robot Controller powered by Arduino

Quote:
I am very excited about this proposed controller. I really hope we use this for the new control system. I currently have a RobotOpen shield, which I plan to start using after the upcoming build season. It would be really exciting to see the (expensive) cRIO being replaced by a cheaper, open source controller.
Unfortunately this will not be a reality. We were informed on Friday that we didn't make the first round of cuts. Hopefully a solution as simple as the Arduino will prevail.

What are your plans on the visual language?
We proposed Simulink. It will compile down to the Arduino and there is official support from Mathworks.

Simulink + Arduino

That said we have focused mainly on the native Arduino environment.
