Re: Camera not working in autonomous

It did work, at least when we tested it on our old robot from last year. We had little chance to really test it until we got to Manchester. It's neat watching that little camera track the light and the "turret" following the camera. It even caught one across the room in the pits and another that was halfway up in the seats. Now _that's_ tracking!

The issue now is the two of them don't agree which way "forward" is supposed to be. The camera is facing the light and the turret is about 30~40 degrees clockwise from that. (The camera mounting is squared off with the turret.) I'm wondering if it's a software calibration or (easier for me!) hardware adjustment. Any suggestions?

lkdjm (aka David Mazza), I notice you're from the same island I'm originally from; long ago I graduated from Herricks HS in New Hyde Park, a school that surprisingly doesn't have robotics. Small world. Good luck at Hofstra!

Roger.
