Team effort

You are welcome... I hope that next year's game lets more of us use the gyro. It's a pretty cool sensor.

The development of this code and system was a team effort. We had two software engineers (Jeff Burch and Gabriel Gallegos) develop it with the help of two students (Matt Lundberg and Shrutish Dawande) and our electrician extra-ordinare (Mike Stahl).

The rest of us non-programming types just sat back and watched it balance.

You shoulda seen us during our 6:00pm practice at Nationals. We were all freaking out because the auto-balancing was not working.... and this was after we "advertize" (brag) to people about coming to our practice to watch it work.

After we got back to the pits, we found out that the gyro was unplugged, accidentally... by me. ooops. he, he.
