Here is a autonomous compilation video that I recently made, showcasing our successful caps. In order, from the video's sequence, the matches are:
NJ Match 39 (This keeper actually didn't count, as it was supported by the stinger.
NJ Match 11
UTC Match 64 (One bot from each alliance capping, us on blue, 1124 on red.)
Galileo Match 22 (Nice close up shot.)
Galileo Match 82
Galileo Match 90* (1126 positions correctly, but knocks off their keeper as they back away. We cap ours on the same alliance.)
UTC Match 52**
NJ Finals 1*
NJ Finals 2***
Match 52 from Galileo, Match 52, and the NJ Finals are my favorites. (I'm still amazed at how we scored in match 52 after slamming into the rack and pulling up from beneath the spider.) As for our method, we used a single ultrasonic sensor to determine the proper distance from the base of the rack. During the matches at NJ, we used the CMUcam to align left/right towards the light, if it were in the view of the camera, and if not it would proceed to use the sonic sensor code. At UTC, we experienced camera troubles, and decided to just use the sonic sensors, and try our best to determine/guess where the spider leg would be after the rack had been moved. At championships, we solely used this method, and scored during 3 out of our 7 qualification matches.
The asterisks indicate my preference on which are the most entertaining to be used for the video, three stars being the highest.
