Hey guys, nice robot! I have one question. I noticed you have your camera mounted off center from your shooter. How did you incorporate the offset into your vision control? How do you know the angle you are at as well from the target?

Yes we are. We're using Jags for all of the motors on the bot.

We have a fixed hood, therefore the angle is constant. In terms of vision control, our programmers are still working on perfecting that... Right now, we have on our dashboard a line the the "manipulator" manually aligns with one side of the reflective tape to compensate for the offset nature of the camera.
