How is everyone else's robots going?
Something for your programmer:

This might sound a little crazy, but hey, it might work.

Ok, the VEX controller uses the same processor as the '05 Robot Controller for FRC. And, the CMUcam and CMUcam2 are inherently the same, except for this year's being DSP based.

The VEX controller's PWM Periods and Pulse-Widths are exactly the same as those from the FRC controller. Therefore, with very minimal alteration, Kevin Watson's camera code should run on a VEX controller. The only thing you'll have to watch is the amount of flash memory remaining in the processor, as it is about 1/4 the amount available in this year's controller

Anyhow, just something I thought about while working on my Radio Control / Semi Autonomous Goose Chaser. (Its an old power wheels car of mine which I am upgrading with a new electrical system and making it Microprocessor controlled)

Good Luck Guys! I really like the 1/4 scale Aim High idea keep running with it.
