Re: Enhanced I/O in 2015?
I know on our team we generally don't like looking down at the dashboard during a match. Since when you look down you can lose track of where the bot is on the field and such.
So this year we implemented some onboard 12v LED's that are then controlled with a spike. Then in the program we have the LED's correlated with a sensor on our robot telling if we have full grasp of the ball. So when we have the ball our LED's turn on. This has shown to really help our drivers efficiency on the field.
Your experience may vary though depending on drivers and such of course.
If you need more info on how we did this and what we used dont hesitate to ask!

In the long run, you don't remember your ranking points, you remember the lessons and friendships from when you were on a robotics team in high school. - smurfgirl [more]
