Work Completed

  • Isaac set pi to autologin, can now run grip and/or streamer on boot with no input
  • Isaac wrote a grip deploy script that might work, with luck
    • should edit the grip file before deploying to make the settings correct for the pi
  • Adam got the shorte commands style code finished(?) and running without errors on the robot
  • alexandre started outline of commands style robot code for this year

Challenges

  • GRIP does not use normal xml, which makes the deploy script more painful
  • whiteboard was hard to erase
  • no pacman to play

Work for Next Meeting

  • OPEN GITHUB AND SYNC, even if you're not sure you'll be modifying robot code.  When meeting is over, COMMIT then SYNC AGAIN.  Just do this every meeting.
  • Test and probably fix GRIP deployment
  • Find best way to see/modify camera settings.  Play with brightness/exposure/etc. to get the best isolation of targets in imagebefore GRIP gets ahold of the stream.  Then adjust GRIP file to make the best use of that.
    • On some websites, they connect the video to the HSV filter twice so that there are two intervals for each. Might want to check this out.
  • Get mjpeg-streamer & GRIP to run when robot code starts, die when disabled or match over
  • Find good settings for mjpg-streamer
    • keep optimizing
  • Outline new robot code, using WPI commands style
  • Get second RPi spun up and tested with GRIP, mjpeg-streamer, etc. for practice bot
  • Check on spike supply and maybe order more
  • Look for velcro to buy thomas want various strengths/sizes
  • Work on wiring of RGB LEDs
  • Look at Nolan's new and improved controls list
