This is a great video. Things I noticed:
  • It would be nice if the Brake/Coast feature was a switch and not a jumper. (People lose jumpers)
  • CAN looks very powerful. I love how you can daisy chain Jaguars together. This will keep wiring simple.
  • The Jaguars run on 12V (from the literature). Can you assume they know the robots electrical system will be 12V in 2009 with some sort of 24V transformer for the cRio?
