While I can't speak for the rest of the teams, I can give out a little info based on the finishing touches that I just put on the control program...here's just a few of the things that will make the Mystery Machine rather interesting this year...
- 2 joysticks, 8 buttons, and 1 multi-position switch connected to the OI
- 8 speed controllers & 5 relays
- 2 speed drive train selectable on-the-fly
- easily adjustable drive train for high speed/high torque between rounds without disassembly
- mechanisms capable of performing almost all possible game actions
- All aluminum construction
...all packed up in a nice and neat 30''x36''x29'' package.
It'll be interesting to see what everybody else comes up with...see you all at the competitions!
