http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&hl=de&geocode=&time=&date=&ttype=&q=42.34 9905,+-71.076072&ie=UTF8&ll=42.349957,-71.075975&spn=0.001947,0.006748&t=h&z=18&om=1&laye r=c&cbll=42.349462,-71.076278

So, to get more people involved with autonomous mode......

Is it possible that they want us to program the robot to get to a certain location on the playing field where there will be a IR signal? At that point, we will program the robot to do something when it receives this signal. When that is done it looks for the second signal and so forth. Wouldn't this make the autonomous mode easier for most teams?

Not sure about the rest of you, but when we went to the regional debriefing meeting at the end of the season, it was obvious that FIRST wanted to get more teams involved with autonomous mode.

So, with that in mind, how does this all tie together?
can the third number be used for this? I have no idea (rookie - newbe)
but this would also refer to the part that was send to us. i think it is very likely that this could be an navigation device for making the autonomus period ''easier''.


another idea (without any educational background!) is that one of te numbers represents a wave lenght for ifraret or some other related stuff there that can be processed by the chip.
