Re: Hybrid Challenge-No Robot Left Behind

Thanks Mike. I appreciate your input.

What we are doing is telling our bot what balls to hit and then it does the rest. We figure we have 1-2 seconds to do this and then it is out of there and then there is no more reason to push buttons.

Interesting thing about the IR receiver according to my software guy over this is that once it receives a signal it transmits for 100ms waits 50ms then you can do another signal. Also holding down the IR same button it will acknowledge that button but only once, that button must be released to get another signal on it.

Also for our use, four buttons is barely adequate, six would be better.
