Can you score in autonomous yet?

A preview of one of our auto modes so far:

Btw, the poll needs to allow for multiple options.

Our autonomous mode works great here at our work shop. When we went to the scrimmage it was not so good. We are looking at the Noise setting on the camera

You should add to the poll

Mechnical team is still working on the robot.
I just got the robot today to program.
The robot breaks faster then I can program it.

Our autonomous is working very, very well on our practice field. Here's to hoping the gremlins don't strike in Manchester.

our robot can score in 6-10 sec 90% of the time... when placing the tube it will pull back with enough force that it shakes the rack (hoping to effect other teams success) our wait time is variable as to allow enough time if an ally needs to score.it will score under the rack, and on any spider height.

That's slightly faster than us, although some more practice time could speed things up. And we have the adjustable delay as well, but haven't really tested it.

Ours does everything BUT correct towards the light. We can see the light, get the keeper, position the arm, and go toward it the light, but if its not dead on and the robot tries to correct, it freaks out. Our programmer said that that part of the code is whats breaking autonomous. I'm assuming he'll have it sorted out by the first day of GLR.

This would be our option as well.

We currently have 9 different autonomous modes written, and we've used a test robot to prove that our code for turning/driving to a light and using a gyro works correctly. However, we haven't been given any time to tune the PIDs on the new robot or test the rest of the code, so we won't know how much we can do until the end of our regional, the way things look now.

Well...we've got a code mostly written, and we have the calculations done. Now all we need is for that darn camera to actually find the light...

[bjimster1]

We've done it once. im not counting on it, it'll be more like gravy. I think we will be able to get about 50% of the time

Well, our team is theoretically capable of hanging, but on the last day we had an exclamation of "Ah!!!! Sparks on the camera board!" It now refuses to work in any usable fashion (power light comes on, but it either chooses to continuously "see" the light or never see it.)

Assuming we steal/borrow a camera from someone, it should work.

We did not get our autonomous mode working... Can anyone tell me if we need to move out of the home zone or can we just move so many feet and then drop our keeper?

You can just sit there and shake the keeper off after autonomous is over.

we never got to test it but heres is the plan if everything happens perfectly

1) hang keeper
2)go to end with ringers and pick one up
3) score said ringer

Good golly. Can you really move that fast?

(Sorry if that's a little off topic. )
