Re: Have you gotten your robot to go towards the vision tetra?
Something I noticed with Tom's setup, with the way you have it, you can't use the one camera to track AND find the point when to stop to pick up the tetra. You've got it set where it'll be looking straight forward and turning till it finds the tetra then going to it. Then, tilting the camera down till the robot lines up with the angle and you know the distance from it. If you can see it at the beginning by having it horizontal, then you can't use it to angle and find it (because horizontal already allows you to see the vision tetra). Or am I mistaken?
