Re: Programmers: I Have A Challenge For You

Our turret was fairly autonomous this year.

Camera would target goal, find distance and angle from target. Center to Target. Figure out what speed to use on the wheels from calibration points. and we would fire.

Everything else was Operator control: driving, ball collection, hitting the fire button, Bridge mounter.

But man that Turret was a blast to code.

I can't guarantee that we will make fully autonomous robot, but we already try to make the Robot take care of itself as best we can.
