Re: Future of Autonomous Mode

Quote:
I don't think that the hardware this year is a problem at all. Even if you do outgrow it ,there is nothing preventing you from adding somethign more sophisticad to augment it. The real challenge(at least for out team) is the six weeks. If this were extended ,then i could see alot more happening. For now i think we continue to see improvement, but only as much as the time limit allows. If Autonomous doesn't change all that much, then this is one area that teams that work during the off-season will have a signifigant advantage.
It really is not a matter of programing in my eyes. It is a lack of sensors. You really can't know where you are/going unless you can see. The sensors FIRST gives us are a good start but more can be done. I have schematics ranging from ultrasonic sensors to metal dectors suitable for detecting goals. I also do not see much problem working on autonomous off-season. Just as long as you:
A) Offer whatever you build to all teams.
B) Rebuild whatever you develop during the six weeks.
