Re: Programmers what is your feild job?

Wait your programmers don't also help build well that must be boring.
I end up doing working on all parts of the robot.

Re: Programmers what is your feild job?

Re: Programmers what is your feild job?

Well... It turns out that like, as far as our team goes, we have like 6 programmers/elecrical guys who tend to break mechanical stuff when they try to help with it... I personally wish I was more mechanically inclined, or knew slightly more about mecchanical stuff so I could help out, but ya, we have a set of people with a vrey narrow and set skillset

Re: Programmers what is your feild job?

Our team programmer was also the driver this year. Apparantly we had a second programmer, but apparantly he did next to nothing in regards to that.

I'm a good programmer myself, but unfortunately have no experience when it comes to robot input/output, so the limit of my source code involvement was debugging the main programmer's code.

I'm hoping next year I can take a few crash courses with my team's teacher (who also teaches all the electronics programming stuff) so I can take a more active role in the coding of the robot.

Oh, and by the way, I was the field coach
