Work Completed
- Found the IP address of the camera
- Fixed the drawer in the electrical station
- Worked on Field Pieces
- Put the reflective tape on the tower
- Got mjpeg-streamer compiled and running on the Pi. Took some work to get GRIP to find and use the stream, succeeded at 9:29 PM
- In parallel, got the Axis IP camera working with GRIP on the laptop. Axis is our new Plan B.
- GRIP still tosses error because it can't find a NetworkTables server, but that should be remedied by hooking things up to the robot.
Challenges
-Have trouble GRIPing.
-Faulty information about the voltage needed to run the camera
Work for Next Meeting
- Continue on GRIP + RPi efforts. Get Pi + camera connected to robot, see if robot code can get GRIP's values off NetworkTables.
- Help with making field elements
- Upgrade Short-E to lastest robotpy
- Upgrade DS to latest pyfrc
- Upgrade to latest GRIP that was just released
- Finish spinning up both new DS laptops [Adam]
- Keep trying to get GRIP ARM build to work on Jetson [Adam]
- Work on wiring of RGB LEDs
- Add the sensors back and uncomment the code if the Demos are over.
- BTW in the case of the ultrasonic and contact switch they are both in ports 3. (ultra in Analog IN, switch in DIO)
- Do around 10 tests with the ultrasonic to get a large number of datapoints from different distances.
On Schedule?
