Re: Your Best Robot
For Team 1501 IMHO the 2006 robot was the best.
Had an awesome autonomous mode. We could score 8-10 balls each time.
The camera would lock onto the light and know how far it was from the goal by the angle of the camera and using a gear tooth sensor would adjust the speed of the shooter to allow us to be moving forward or backwards and still put every ball into the goal.
It had a failsafe that would not allow it to shoot if it did not see the light. This would keep us from firing balls into the crowd.
The camera was also set up to ignore every light but the green light. For testing we would pass a lit fluorescent light in front of the green light and the camera would not see it.
And last, but not least....WE GOT PUBLISHED!!!
