we have a banner sensor on each weel that counts wheel speed.....as for climbing we either have nothing or we are using limit switches...i belive when the robot was shipped we had no automated way of getting up the stairs but i was promised it was being worked on, and since i have been on spring break i have no idea what progress has been made. i know that we are using a banner to determine height of our arms and with a linear pot controling the height of the arms....the nice thing about this is that we have clicks (for lack of a better word) at specific heights (stationary goal, mobile goal, hanging) so that the driver doesn;t have to guess and can just snap to the height.....i do think that automating the climbing with this type of drive is essential and we will have it by cleveland....anyway i am going to bed cause i am driving to trenton tomorrow morning for the NJ regional.....good job guys and good night
