How do you plan on doing auton?
Well what i am doing is basically setting up an X,Y coordinate of the field and keeping track of robot position and angle using gear teeth counters and a gyro... theres a function that makes sure gearteeth are counted at certain times etc... and another to update the robot in the coordinate system.... we are using the camera to find the vision tetra... and as for the distance from us to the tetra probably going to use bounding box size to tell when we're close then slow down until a (protected) switch hits the tetra... we back up and using a pot lower the arm etc... after that theres another func which compares robot position to target position and gives us angle to turn to and distance ....
i am really happy with autonomous this year because the way i set it up it doesn't even matter.... NO SWITCHES FOR AUTON !!! YES!!!! YES!!! YES... place the robot anywhere and it will find its way
oh crap i just realized... the coordinate system zeros to the robot start position darn darn darn... my dreams of a switchless universe is ruined....

Its not about Poof balls or green lights or getting up on the ramp at the end, this is about the learning experience and inspiration gained throughout the year. - Winged Wonder [more]
