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

I think that it must have something to do with the visual nature of LabVIEW pushing people to use the visual side of the brain, which can get pretty cluttered...
Yeah, that must be it. By that argument, CADing up the robot must be a really bad idea.

P.S. LabVIEW doesn't qualify as a programming language!
Here we go again. Technically you are right, though. LabVIEW is a tool that is used to write G code. G is the language, even though most people call it by the product's name.

If you have learned LabVIEW well enough to criticize it, give it a shot. Explain why it isn't a programming language. While you are at it, explain what a programming language is.

On the vision tracking topic, has anyone started comparing the approaches and determining the key elements that led to success? I did a number of presentations in Atlanta, and I have my list of things.
