"I'm trying to be more like Thomas" -Isaac

"Germany is 6.2 billion dollars under budget. Their government made 6.2 billion dollars this year, compare that to the US..." Isaac

• Isaac redownloaded the operating system on the rasperry pi
• Spoke with Mike about vision processing
• Got wheels to spin on the nonadrive
  • Drives forward or backwards no turning
• Moved 40 amp fuses to correct locations
  • Adjectives to describe this task include: insightful, necessary, deductive

• Did not realize that some breakers were misplaced in the power distribution board causing one victor to receive no power.
• Forgot to check the SHA 1 sum on Isaac's download (raspberry pi)
• Mechanical wanted to run the old robot's feeder for their own sick amusment (prototyping) but the old robot code on drivestation 1 was giving errors
• Did not realize that there was a mismatch in the constants in the code
• Low turnout
  • words and/or phrases to describe this: "dissapointing", "uninspiring", "how dare you have a social life", "have a nice weekend... you're fired"

• Write the code for nonadrivE
  • Try and find a way to make the robot turn
    • Psudo code for turning:
      • Get X and Y from the Joystick, do whatever scaling and calibrating you need to do based on your hardware.
      • Invert X
      • Calculate R+L (Call it V): V =(100-ABS(X)) * (Y/100) + Y
      • Calculate R-L (Call it W): W= (100-ABS(Y)) * (X/100) + X
      • Calculate R: R = (V+W) /2
      • Calculate L: L= (V-W)/2
      • Do any scaling on R and L your hardware may require.
      • Send those values to your Robot.
      • Go back to 1.

  • Start figuring out how we might manuver the robot during auto.
• fix da pi
• Put sensors (gyro/accelerometer?) on nonadrive

List from Mike (preventative measures):

• Batteries
  • Battery Beak, logging and tracking internal resistance
    • Make a google spreadsheet to track battery data
    • Use computer to collect data/make a graph about voltage over time
  • Put meaningful labels on the batteries
  • Build load testing board
    • Resistors!
• Power Distribution Panel
  • ​Can read voltage/current on every port
    • Could be used for diagnostics
• Make a checklist
  • Learn how to read LED indicators on all components
  • Guidlines for checking wire integrity
  • Unit tests in robot code​
    • Check to see if sensors are working?
    • Motors running correctly
    • Battery has enough voltage
    • Check the pneumatic pressure as well as solenoids
  • Useful for prematch/prebagging​
  • Voltimeter between the various locations
• Sensors
  • Range finders - analog IO -> RIO (code)
  • Touch sensor - digital IO -> RIO (code)
• Checkout Code // Comptetion Code
