Re: 1189 - Human-Bot Arm Control

This is all great work guys, I hope the next manipulator-based game sees you doing it again!

1731 had an arm that had 6 degrees of freedom and even though it was delicate and somewhat slow they could still get 5-6 rings/match if left alone. They did win the VCU Driving Tomorrow's Technology award this year, and from talking to the students and mentors they have several ways it could be sped up.

Once FIRST moves to a new controller, if it has the capability of doing either integral math or at least a faster iterative processor then those pretty-pictured Matlab simulations for the control of this type of stuff could become a reality. Can't wait to see.
