A couple of Team Argos mentors (me included) worked through the off season to build a training platform for the FRC community. We've used the
Argobot throughout our build season to get our software/controls students up to speed quickly, with many students able to go from never having run LabVIEW to getting the Argobot running in 60 minutes. They've learned about using touch, proximity, ultrasonic and inertial sensors over the past 6 weeks, most of which are being used on our robot. It's based on the Digilent WF32 board running
LINX, and has a whole host of tutorials on YouTube to get started.
