Hi, I am a brazilian mentor of #1860 team and, i would like to know the teams that are scoring in autonomous mode and it will participate of the championship… If possible, post the some link with a video… I think that is important to know the robots better. Thank you by everything, mainly by the support to the Brazilian teams every year.
1038 will be attempting to keep our string of pretty successful autons alive in Atlanta. I don’t have a video, but I have a few pics of our set up and the end result.
Hi,
648 will be scoring in autonomous at the championship, and hopefully trying a more complex “secret” autonomous mode.
Here is the link to a few of our autonomous scoring matches http://www.soap.circuitrunners.com/2007/movies/il/
check out qf1m3, and sf1m1 and sf1m3. For a laugh, check out fm3, and il_019
good luck at the championship

In the eliminations at Buckeye, we had two that could score well in auton, 1038 and Sparx… We tried to do a double auton hang on the same column (top and middle legs) twice… didn’t work real well due to interference between the robots and the rack. If you could time it right, it would be way cool. As it was, the place went nuts when both robots took off towards the same target.
Yeah, it was awesome. In Q4-2 Sparx scored auton on the middle and we missed the top, and in Q4-3 Sparx missed the middle and we scored the top. It was great to see.
How many teams are going to try to score on the leg NOT directly in front of them? We’re using a gyro and encoder to give us the option of a side score, but I haven’t seen anyone successfully do it yet.
We use encoder and gyro too, but when we start to test the correction of angle, the gyro did not function very well, then we decide to use the camera for give us feedeback. In this way we obtain to score of any initial position.
330 managed to do that once. Dead reckoning works sometimes (in quals and eliminations, I’ve seen 3 from us in two regionals, plus a bunch of near misses).
Yes. A few teams have done it, including 116 and 330. Granted both of these teams weren’t using their camera for their autonomous when they scored. The video I posted of 116 scoring earlier actually shows us doing it.
These prizes only emphasize the great mind that is behind all this work.
And I own a lot from what I am today, because of this mind ^^
I belive you know what i’m talking about!
