Re: Vision Targeting for Aerial Assist 2014

You guys are making this too complicated.

In autonomous, you need to know which goal is hot to score the maximum number of points for that ball. Alternatively, you can get 15pts by scoring on a non hot goal (or possibly 20pts if youre lucky)

You already know precisely (to the nearest inch or two) where everything else on the field is on your side of the field if your drive team knows how to setup the robot (training them is far easier than writing code around this). If your intake device needs a higher precision than that then you will have a very hard time playing this game.

If you choose to be a blocker, you could try to find robots by moving along the wall until you find one. There's a possibility that they are turned, which you can't reliably know until you see the ball path, and it's probably too late to block it at that point. It's also possible that the one robot you find is not scoring in autonomous.

During teleop, you have these guys who drive the robot, who know how to drive robots. In the time it takes you to calibrate your vision system on the robot, you could train them to play the game faster, with more strategic input from the coach than an autonomous system could.

IMHO, find the hot goals, and train your drivers.
