We aren't using infra-red until we are within feet of the beacon.

Well, technically you already are.

But anyway, 384 is doing are trust dead-recog. I was thinking of doing a fail-safe type system, where the robot would line-follow, then if it looses the line, instead of just stopping, goes into infra-red detection mode, then in dead-recon.

Re: Autonomous mode

We're probably gonna go for the bonus ball, but we have the possibility to manipulate the goal or the 2x on top of it, possibly at hte same time. Using our insanley fast robot,we could do it all, but with our luck, we'd explode immediately afterword. Otherwise, DANCE CODE!!!!!!!! But, we'd explode after that also, or get beaten by people who hate watching robots dance really badly.

Re: Autonomous mode

Since we haven't gotten it to go straight with any consistancy, we are going to just let it run wherever it wants and take it from there.

Well thats one way to go about it. One of our secondary automodes is kind of like that.

Re: Autonomous mode

hopefully if everything goes correctly, we might have a waypointing system that we can change directly before the match using a GUI and selecting a path and having it write the code....but.... we may not have time to finish it.

Re: Autonomous mode

We have two autonomus modes, one that will follow the line and trigger the ball drop, and the other that my team is pretty secrative about.

Dead reckoning is when your robot performs pre-programmed commands during autonomous without the use of sensors. Essentially, you tell the robot to turn this motor until so-and-so and this one until this, that, and the other thing.

Re: Autonomous mode

I didn't see any autonomus code run at the scrimmage at the National Building museum yesterday. Except for the one robot that looked like it tried to line follow, but it just went in circles...

Hey that sounds like our robot from last year until we switched to dead reckoning.

Re: Autonomous mode

Oh yeah, we will be going under the ball drop for our main, our secondary incase our partner can catch better (which we shouldn't need) will be to go over to the other side and do something. Watch for pics and video either today or tommarow (2/22 - 2/23) of us catching all 18 balls.

Re: Autonomous mode

Our primary is to go under the ball drop. (And our robot is capable of catching all of the balls ) Our secondary is probably to go graba movable goal and a third is to knock the bonus ball off. We probably won't do the bonus ball, since the balls drop at 45 seconds anyways and if we cathc them all and give them to our human player we should still be ok.

Oh, yeah, and we have a possible fourth, which is to do the chinup at the very beginning. Did that one mostly just for the fun of it; I mean, really, would you want to hang yourself in the first 15 seconds?

Hum, good point. We do have a movable goal manipulator (big words... ), but it might be hard to use with balls in our hopper.
