This file includes the lower level routines and utilities that formed the basis for this year bot. The control routines are fairly generic and should be adaptable to many situations. While the code has been reasonably tested, problems may remain so use caution. Hopefully it can be of some use to ...
This is Team 237 (Sie-H20-Bots)'s code for the 2005 season. This is the exact code, ripped directly from our laptops C drive
It includes:
- Autonomous code that we used to cap vision tetra
- Auto Positioning system to set our arm/wrist into a certain position with a push of a button
etc....
This a basic PHP tutorial that I wrote up.
It might be too late for this season, but hopefully it will be useful for your future.
I have included the following in this tutorial:
Basic PHP
Printing text
Comments
Variables
Constants
Mathematical Operations
Conditionals
For statements

This is a nifty little .NET 2003 program that logs people in and out like one of those punch clocks you see in old movies (but a bit cooler if i say so myself). It can be used for deciding who goes to certain competitions and the like. There's no readme, but it's pretty easy to figure out. All you...
Due to some recent confusion on how to change the channels on the OI for practice situations, I put together this quick whitepaper that hopefully explains everything.
This is the program Team SPAM is using to plot waypoints for autonomous mode this year. I hope other teams find it useful and interesting. This program shows the picture of the field and the user can generate points by clicking on its position on the picture. Look at the readme for more details.
This is a very introductory HTML tutorial I wrote up for the season.
It includes:
HTML Structure
Headings
Paragraphs
Spacing/New Lines
Horizontal Rules
Comments
Font Color/Face/Size

This paper documents Team Ford FIRST's stand-alone IR beacon and IR sniffer. It was designed to free up the Edubot from field beacon duty, it operates from almost any supply ("wall-wart" or 12 volt battery), generates either TYPE 0 or TYPE 1 signals, or if paired with another identical ...
C Programming Guide (34 pages)
========================
Uses free IDE/Compiler so students can learn and practice the basics of C programming at home or school. Allows students to understand how to read and make meaningful changes in the Robot default ...
The FIRST Operator Interface includes one display variable designated as User_Mode_byte. The default program sets User_Mode_byte = backup_voltage*10 to
display the backup voltage variable. The display variable can be used to display
multiple user software variables by writing different...
This document provides both a tutorial, as well as information on more advanced programming techniques that are useful for learning C programming for your robot. It is a work in progress.
The tutorial uses the Extensible Interactive C (EiC) interpreter to allow students to try out C program constr...
With the advent of a new season and the influx of new programmers-to-be I decided to do a 1 or 2 page write-up on just how a programmer new to FIRST can get started. I wrote this up to bootstrap rookie team programmers. Sort of a how does one get started when they know absolutely nothing about where...
Provides integer sine, cosine and arctangent trigonometric functions, using the CORDIC algorithm, accurate to +- 1/16777216. Also contains a floating-point CORDIC square root function, accurate to +- 1/16777216, as well as a few other standard math functions.
This is the Techno-Gremlins code from 2004. Some features:
* Multi-autons, selected by OI.
* Multi-positioning pnuematics system.
* feedback loops.
* Arm safties
- Length limit switch and pot limit
- Hand current (Will reset if reversed)
* Gyro
* Quadrature
* Desensitized joystic...
This document contains the entire code for team #115's Global Positioning System, which uses four IR sensors mounted on servos in order to determine the robot's exact position and orientation, along with an error function which gives an estimate of the confidence in the given values. The walkthro...
