Question says it all, looking for opinions on what are the best things to be displayed on a driver station dashboard from your team’s experience.
Things like vision I can understand and have done but what are those more unknown things that you would recommend?
Pneumatics psi. Saved us a lot when trying to see if there were any leaks or tubes needed to be pushed down before matches started.
Current auto mode that is selected,
Visions information / camera,
Pneumatics psi,
Red / green status box if robot is connected,
Make sure the actual driverstation is in view as well to see if controllers are connected.
Anything else is clutter and not that useful in a 2:30 second match IMO.
6328’s NetworkAlerts are very helpful
as a driver: nothing.
i wasn’t looking down, i was looking at the robot. the operator agreed. it helped that we had LEDs that would go solid green when we had a game piece, and would turn off when we lost it. we had some info displayed that would help our drive coach see what we were doing though, a dashboard using shuffleboard. used it to select our auto too.
as a programmer: everything.
at home, you should be logging literally everything. we used glass to view and graph everything from encoders positions, motor outputs, estimated pose, and more. so useful for tuning PID.
Battery voltage – esp for practice and outreach events.
