Re: "Quotes" that were said during build season
When I was fixing our 2008 robot's steering feedback system for a demonstration. The robot is sitting on the ground so that we can test the effect of friction on the Ackermann system:
New member:So what funny stories do you have about this robot
Me:I don't know, they're not usually all that funny since they usually end in people getting hurt
*3 minutes later*
New member:What does this do?(picks up joystick)
John: DON'T TOUCH THAT IT'S THE THROTTLE!!!!
Me:Okay, that one was kind of funny
"You know, if we tweaked the color parameters, this could become a humane substitute for bullfighting"--while I was testing the color tracking by wearing a pink shirt and getting chased around by the robot
"The robot might oscillate slightly"--me, about 5 seconds before the robot starts spinning around at maximum speed(it turns out gyros are harder to use than I thought)
