Re: Has anyone else had trouble staying within the 10 second limit in autonomous?
To help with the whole searching problem, we're going to try to initialize the camera so it will automatically turn to face about where the target is, then search from there. That saves a second or two of sweeping around looking for the light.
The ability to start facing any direction is what really helps this year. Since we shoot out of the side of our robot, we are going to start with our side facing the front of the field, and simply drive backwards (which will be left because of the robot orientation) a bit while everything locks onto target and the wheel gets up to speed, then fire as fast as possible. We'll see how well auto firing works. I'd be worried about defensive bots purposely ramming you, except that you must specify which zone to start in BEFORE the match, which means they can't move their robot to try to hit yours. They can use a switch to pick a different mode and turn to come after you though. And a last note, why do you need to move to shoot? The center of the three starting positions are 27, 30, and 34 feet from the goal. |
