Multiple Light Tracking with Distinct Light Boxes

I sent this e-mail out tonight to everyone that was on my mailing list.

As a result of snow delays and other complications, our team has changed directions and will no longer be pursuing the camera. As a result we can no longer continue developing the dual light code. If any of you are interested in still obtaining the beta code, I will be placing a link on the original Chief Delphi post shortly. It is stickied in the CMUcam sub-section of the Programming forum. Best of luck in their upcoming competitions, and we hope to see you at Nationals.

Thanks again, and good luck!

(For example, pwm outputs are configured as in Mr. Watson's streamlined code, so there definitely is some (potential) non-neutral activity on every pwm. Please see user_routines.c if you need to comment this out.)

2. I should clarify that this code does not yet move the pan/tilt servos. We have started working on that but it's not yet debugged completely. Instead of waiting, I wanted to at least get this base code out.

3. If your camera is mounted upside down (see Kevin's post in the sticky on chiefdelphi) then the GUI representations will be upside down. I think everything else should work (I'm not totally sure of this).

I have attached a zip file with the uncompiled python scripts and the camera code for the robot. The executable python scripts were too large to attach. If you have any further questions I will try to get back to you.

Let us know if we can help with the situation, and thanks for posting it for all to enjoy.

Good luck,

Hello!
I am new to chiefdelphi and, well, new to FRC. Our team has been having trouble with the Virtual_Window command. Whenever we send the command, our camera seems to initialize. This makes the camera physically move back to it's starting position... We must be doing something wrong, we just don't know what. We came up with an alternate method of tracking the rack without using virtual window (only using a corner of the "blob" we see.) This solution is messy at best, so if anybody could help, please either reply or email me at neutrino15[at]gmail[dot]c0m. (the 0 is a o in com)..

Thank You!

We use this, it works quite well. Just aim to either corner (x1 or x2) instead of the center (mx).
