Re: How does your auto-aim work?

we have our camera mounted to the top of our launcher. The launcher is located on the side of the robot, and is not a turret but it does tilt. We use the difference in the x values to determine how far away we are and we use it to determine if were centered. Right now we drive out dead reconing, and then the turn stops one the camera aligns with the target, then we open her up. Today we were scoring in between 7 and 9 of the 10 balls in autonomous.
