What is YOUR autonomous strategy?

[Jared Russell]

Our robot will use sensors to collect information about its environment, then discard that information and drive into a wall.

Isn't this everyone's autonomous?

We've done that autonomous. After several years of refinement we decided to skip the information collection and just drive into the wall at the earliest opportunity.

Ours is to be adaptable to our partners.

We plan on having 5 different starting positions with several variations of movements and shooting that will net anywhere from 18-42 points.

Our hopes are a picked alliance will be attempting 78 points for an autonomous score.

Our team plans on either just shooting 3 discs, or starting in back of the pyramid, shooting 3, and then picking up 2 more and shooting those. We want to be flexible too for other teams.

I don't think we have a strategy yet, but we might come up with a tactic such as having the robot shoot three discs, then sit there with a big grin on it's face

Not at all. Some of us like to just sit there, saving our energy for Tele-Op.

Score 3 preloads. If I have programming time, maybe ignore sensors and drive into a wall, not ignore sensors and drive into a wall (and/ or pick up and shoot more discs)

Are you copying us? We are building the same exact thing. We are hoping to win an award for it.

We designed our robot to only shoot into the top goal from the top of the pyramid, so in autonomous we climb up the pyramid, shoot one frisbee, climb down, pick up another frisbee, climb up, shoot, climb down, and then drive in a donut on the center line.
Did I mention that we can only shoot the frisbees sideways?

hmm... This is a reply to Jared, who's on 341, and the poster above is from 25... and both mentioned driving into a wall... I'd say that 25 and 341 are onto something here...

Go straight, turn left.

[nikeairmancurry]

Wait....... Burn some rubber.... Make cool noises... Have lights flash.... End auton..

[Justin m]

Turn 90 degrees to the left, shoot.

[Dragonking]

The only way to play defense during auton is to shoot down your opponent's shots with your own discs
