Thumbs up Re: pic: Thousands of manhours of work... coming '07

I know how you guys said you want 2 X 20 or 4X20 LCD screens but I don't think you guys can get what you want. Here is why, you don't have lot of character options and I know how you wanted feedback from camera but what kind of feedback? A simple text based saying "Colour Green Detected" "Distance 45 meters"? or something that shows you what the camera is viewing, in other words looking from camera's point of view.

Also, With a small 2X20 LCD screen how are you guys planning on creating a navigation system. Especially the interface? I thought you guys have a GUI that goes along with your navigation system. In such circumstance you guys will be using a laptop to map the co-ordinates and than the GUI will generate a code based on co-ordinates you selected and than feed info to micro-controller. Well why go through so much trouble?

Have an embedded computer into your control system, which you can use to run your GUI while designing autonomous. Once you are done designing autonomous you can have options to save 9 different autonomous modes into EEPROM. During the autonomous have an onboard binary swtich system which will allow you to activate one of the 9 autonomous from EEPROM. At the same time you can use your computer that is embedded to get realtime feedback from the robot during a game.
