Team 1425 scored in auto mode using ultra-sonic sensors in the Las-Vegas regional. We didn't get our auto-mode working until the last 2 qualifying rounds.
We use 4 ultra-sonic sensors and do not use the camera. We have one that looks for the rack to determine distance, and 3 that look for the spider foot to line us up. Thus we don't care about the presence or absence of the light.
Check us out on the SOAP archive of the Las Vegas regional.
We will be in Atlanta (due to our win in Las Vegas and a very successul fund raising effor <THANKS XEROX!> ), we are finalizing things this morning.
