 we would all build robots to play "rock-paper-scissors" if FIRST told us to, cause it is just so freakin' much fun to build a robot until 2:30am every night for six weeks! - dlavery [more] |

Noisy Accelerometer
Hello,
We've wired up the 2009 KOP accelerometer and coded up a graph displaying the acceleration to make sure everything works and to get a idea of what goes on when (note: X-Axis only). However, our accelerometer appears to be quite noisy, when the robot is accelerating (X-Axis pointing direction of forward robot motion), the acceleration returned "noisily" goes up and down (including both positive and negative ranges). Though, when the robot is still, or we turn the accelerometer to face gravity or look away, it works fine, going smoothly with the correct values. So, do we have a broken/odd accelerometer or a really, really bumpy drivetrain? Thanks -Tanner |
