Motion Planning and Control for FRC - FIRST Championship Conference Session

Have you been wondering why your robot never seems to drive to exactly the same spot in autonomous mode?

Why can't your robot turn exactly 90 degrees every time?

Does your elevator throw totes or cans when it starts or stops?

Have you heard of this thing called PID, but don't know how to take it to the next level?

Have you come across Chief Delphi threads like this one, or maybe this one, or a post like this one, and thought: "This looks like it might be useful, but I have no idea what they are talking about"?

Does your robot's coordination and control look more like this:


than this?


If you answered yes to any of the above questions, you should come to our seminar on Motion Planning and Control for FRC, on Wednesday, April 22 at 4:30PM in Room 240 of the America's Center. All are welcome.

This presentation is being prepared by the control systems teams from Team 254 and Team 971, and it should be fun and informative. I'll see you there!
