Re: FIRST team is national Underwater Bot champs

<<I'm curious abou that laser distance measuring device. You advocate publishing your ideas, but according to your website that's a "secret". Anyway, what is it used for, and how do you send its data to the operators?>>

There is no secret. It's a digital laser measure withe a digital readout. We have a camera facing the readout. The problem is that the read out is 30% off due tothe density of the water. We had a printed table to compute the correct distance.
