My lead programmer asked me to find him cool program challenges he can do to improve the robot such as vision targeting to help pick up the ball and setting equal speeds for the badly greased gear boxes. Any advice?
Seriously anything, the harder the better He just loves this type of stuff.
If you have shifting things like intelligent automatic shifting can be nice. You may also want to look into a catching assistant that suggests where to drive to catch a ball. Keep in mind that this would be pretty difficult and would require some special hardware as I don't think dedicating the cRIOs power to it would be worth it.
