Re: How many Robots at the nationals had an operational Camera Track Autonomous?

I suspected most teams that were having success with the camera were using C++. We spent a lot of time working with the camera in labview. Sometime we could tune it so it worked perfectly. Then the slightest change in the lighting would wipe our progress out.

I'm hoping to have time to dissect the labview code and understand how they're doing it. It's pretty complex. I'm certain fundamentally the programming language shouldn't matter, so it's mainly all about comparing the implementations in both C++ and labview.
