Re: What have you developed or are in process of developing?

This project has been drawn out for a few years, and it is sort of my child now. I'm getting paid (via grants) to work on it in the lab at the university I go to.

Take data from the kinect's depth map, find objects in front of it, input those into my path finding algorithm, use our vision system to find where we are on the field and which way we are facing (camera pose estimation), generate a path based on where we are, with the obstactles the kinect detected, to a point on the field in which we can score, and follow that path (much like 254's code this year)
