Re: What have you developed or are in process of developing?
I'd be interested in helping if you're open-sourcing it or otherwise looking for help!

We learning how to use NetworkTables and are using them to give ourselves better data for tuning PID loops.

Re: What have you developed or are in process of developing?
This year we're looking at using a coprocessor to handle a lot of stuff that would normally be done by the robot itself or the driverstation. Because we don't have to worry about using CPU cycles on the RIO, we'll be able to do quite a bit. We're looking at developing a field-positioning system that integrates input from a variety of sources (encoders, a 9-axis IMU, the camera, etc.) that will be able to precisely determine our position and orientation on the field. We're also looking at a more complex logging framework that will essentially continuously log the state of every part of the robot. That will let us virtually replay the match after the fact to help with debugging. With the new CAN bus APIs, we should be able to grab info about current draw from our actuators, which will provide greater insight into what's happening on the robot at any given time. One student is designing a temperature-monitoring system that will use an Arduino with a bunch of temperature sensors attached to it to monitor the temperature of various parts of the robot. And, of course, we'll continue to refine our LED code

Try designing HTML5 apps in Phonegap to help with scouting, marketing, PR, etc.
