Re: GPS at FRC Regionals?
GPS is a line-of-sight technology. It pretty much does not work indoors.
Commercial GPS receivers do not give us the resolution necessary for FRC.
Differential GPS (like that provided by the Coast Guard for coastal navigation) is much better (maybe a few feet) but stiii not good enough for FRC. But some other radio-based navigation element would be cool in autonomous mode, perhaps a simple directional beacon of some sort?
