Work for Next Meeting

  • Isaac needs to finish writing the pi set up guide updated to the new stuff
  • 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.
  • Outline new robot code, using WPI commands style
    • Ask mechanical about the indexer
    • Work on shooter code
    • Alexandre: better comment the code you wrote
  • 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.
  • mjpeg-streamer & GRIP can now start when Pi boots, still need to SSH in and shutdown nicely when disabled or match over.
  • Find good settings for mjpg-streamer (Look into the fork)
    • keep optimizing (It seems that brightness and contrast being near zero works extreemly well
  • Get second RPi spun up and tested with GRIP, mjpeg-streamer, etc. for practice bot
    • Catch Beta up to Alpha Pi 2.
  • Check on spike supply and maybe order more
  • Look for velcro to buy thomas want various strengths/sizes
    • I think we bought cheaper kind so we just have ot wait.
  • Work on wiring of RGB LEDs
  • Look at Nolan's new and improved controls list
