Re: 3310 Robot Reveal

It's autonomous ... mostly.

The arm operator initiates the cycle. He can pause and resume if the gripper is off a little bit. Each cycle the robot pauses and waits for the ok from the arm operator. If the gripper is in the right spot then he hits go. If not then he can pause and manually adjust.

We are still working on speeding it up and getting our robot to the right spot in the first place. Should be ok today.
