Yeah, that wasn't too impressive was it. I'm not quite sure what the cause of that was. There were rumors that it had missed it's first waypoint and drove back to get to it. Once it was back in the starting well it tried to drive in a straight line to the top of the ramp. This would cause the wheels to slip as it pushed against the side of the ramp. Thinking that it was at the top of the ramp, it drove to what it thought was the bottom of the ramp, when in reality it ran into the bar.

We need to do some more research, but if that was the case, we have a plan to fix it.


Overall I actually thought it was rather impressive. It was neat in one of the matches (qf's I think) to see the robot be able to sweep the entire stack area and knock down all the stacks and then go up the ramp and take out the wall. Ingenious design.


I was only pointing out that no system is impervious to imperfection. That flaw pointed out that the system still has errors.
