Re: GPS with VEX
I was thinking about a radio transmission system that works like a local GPS, where something above the field is transmitting a signal, and devices on the robots can use the exact timing of that signal to determine exactly where it is (think thats how GPS works, but i could be completely wrong.) Something radio, wireless, free of looking for visual things (or infrared, basically free of line of sight stuff.) More of an actual location instead of an estimated calculated location. Think of the possibilities for a game and the autonomy of a game if you had this data reliably!
(I just realized that I'm talking about FRC here, and the thread is titled VEX. Sorry for the confusion.)
