Re: Fault Tolerant Robot Design

If you take a look at how the Poofs determine which goal is hot, in both their CheesyVision and their on-robot sensor implementation they count votes from each of the sides. A goal is only hot if the vote difference favors that sensor or that hand by some minimum threshold (something like 10).

Whereas just asking once "Which side is hot?" returns a result with considerable noise, they are effectively asking many many times and aggregating these results to extract the signal from the noise.
