Re: Vex Light Sensor on FRC Bot

I just tested some Vex Sensors with some remotes and found that if used as a digital input the number will fluctuate rapidly between 1 and 0 when directly exposed. this goes away after about 2 feet or so. When used as an analog input the number still changes but not as rapidly.

Btw I used a universal remote setup for a magnavox, a samsung remote, and a comcast remote
