Hello Programmers

[magical hands]

Hi! to all the programmers and this year's game "Aim High" is pretty exciting especially the scoring part of it. I was just wondering how you guys are going to using programming aspect (for e.g. to aim, to move, to shoot) and What sensors you guys will be using. Have a great season!!!!

I'd be willing to say that the majority of us have very little idea of what our robot is going to even look like. Check back in a week and you'll be able to get some details.

Good luck all!

How's the answer we have ideas, but nothing for sure? I know some sensors I would very much like to use for this year, but what we will use depends on what the whole team decides to build, and what we can actually get working. I already have ideas on using the camera, encoders, a gyro, POTs, and the photogate sensors, but we'll see what actually happens.

At this point in time, it's hard to know which sensor will be necessary as most robots are still just dream in our heads. However, I recommend knowing how the camera and pots work and can be incorporated into the system.

We have a tank like structure were going to use. but me and the other programmers are just learning C programming. I'm comming from C++, and the other two is from HTML. so we better learn quikly!!

Going from C++ to C isnt to bad. But from HTML to C. They are in no way similiar. Hope you guys get coded whatever you are going to try and do.

Yea, C++ to C should be no problem at all.

If they used PHP with HTML, then they shouldn't have any major problems, but straight HTML to C.. ugh.

They just started HTML, they don't know what PHP is. but we are using Easy C combined with MPLAB to help program our robot. I already know the defult code inside out, now all we need to do is program it.
