Well, We originally had our robot set to with a line tracker that used 6 sensors to follow the line to the ramp. It worked but after we used it in competition we realized that it was way to slow. We then wrote a dead reckoning program to bring it up the ramp in the same format as the line tracker but without sensing the line. At Nat's we decided to modify the dead reckoning. We angled the robot so it would drive strait out until it was about even with the side of the ramp. Then turned it about 45 degrees and sent it up the ramp. It worked quite well for a while until some mechanical difficulties slowed our robot down. We then decided to make a program that brought our robot back under the bar in autonomous so that we could defend the stack. By the end of Nats we had about 5 or 6 different auto modes.
