Re: Should We Program Autonomous For the Y?
My philosophy regarding autonomy: do not do it if you are not doing real time calculations. I personally do not consider those "drive forward 10 feet and score" autonomy real autonomy. They are pre-written instructions; where is the autonomy in that? Consider getting a job and a written step by step instructions on how to do that job. Would you consider that an autonomous action? No I would not.
So the autonomy should be a challenge for the programmers to breathe some life into the robot, allowing it to make choices on its own.
The ideal autonomy should use cameras, I plan on using a camera, the photosensors and possibly the encoders.
