Re: calling all Winners of Excellence in Control
First, I'd like to reinforce what others have said, that explaining to the judges is extremely important. It helps when the person telling the judges about each aspect of your robot is knowledgeable and excited about what they have to share.
We had a light stick on our driver station that indicated different things such as a ball being in front of the kicker (infrared beam across the front broken) or the kicker being ready to fire. This was extremely useful for debugging as well as at the competition. We also used a gyro to keep the robot going straight when there wasn't twist on the joystick. We attempted to use the camera for aiming and I was able explain to explain in detail how it should have worked but there were software issues and we ran out of time.
