Re: Optical Sensors Used as Encoders?
Personally, I think unless the bot is very slow, the extra resolution wont matter. You still cant stop the bot
theres just too much inertia. And we are not using the sensor on the actual wheel. We have it on a gear that is in a ratio of about 18:1 to the wheel. So that increases the resolution. And about the tape... The rules say "no adhesive-backed tape on the robot. The only exception is electrical tape, and it can only be used as as insulator". So a "decorative" explanation might not go over with the inspectors too well. White paint works very well, and is completely legal. |
