Our auton story, with the camera. The day we finally have camera-driving as the autonomous mode on our testbot, 3 programmers, all named Josh, are wearing green. The first instance, where it seemed to not be working, and then suddenly noticed me, had me dive out of the way, and someone quickly hitting the switch. It was almost caught on camera, so we decided to stage it again and record it. This time, the bot doesn't notice me...it notices the other (unaware) Josh. As we test later...the third Josh suddenly walks in...but we were...prepared.

Our pneumatically folding arm was a bit of a problem, as well as our grabber. A mentor got hit on the head in the early days of testing it, and had a bit of bleeding...wasn't really a problem. Everyone wears hardhats while working on the bot since. One instance of the arm falling at high speed was saved by soft safety goggles. Boing!
