Very Cool

Dave,

That's a great system you guys have. We don't do a waypoint map. Since we don't have crab steering, the way we did it seems to make more sense for us.

We did all of our autonomous controller in Matlab/Simulink and it was auto-coded using TargetLink from dSPACE. We developed a mathmatical robot model so that we can simulate the robot path in Simulink before we upload any desired paths to the controller. By doing it this way, we actually have 128 different paths in our controller and we have room for up to 123 more. It usually takes us about 5 minutes to create a path, test it in simulation, and then upload it to the robot controller.

After the simulation is done, we can plot all of the results just like in the attached plot.

I wish we didn't have all of the previously mentioned problems on Thursday and Friday, but we should be ready to rock once we get to West Michigan. I hope people can come check it out.


-Chris
