LIMELIGHT VISION: Drive robot towards vision target so the target is in view of limelight; then have robot drive to a specified distance and turn to a specified angle from the vision target (using a calibrated position and the tx & ty from the limelight)
- Continue learning how to use limelight
- Specifically learn what all of the different values on the network table are and how they can be used
- Continue to look into the Limelight documentations
- Go to specified range from target (check case studies on limelight website & documentation)
- Go to specified range and aim at target (again check case studies)
LINE FOLLOWING:
- Research how the team could use line following sensors on the robot
- Would be used to follow the white tape that is centered coming out from the spots where hatch panels are placed
- Adam says that we probably have some sort of line follower in one of the boxes of electrical stuff so start there when testing anything!
- Should line following be used instead of limelight vision in some places? Together with limelight vision? Or not at all this year?
OTHER:
- Talk to other subteams and drivers to determine what semi-autonomous controls are desired --> need list of everything we wish to accomplish and order of priorities --> this has been started, but more work is definitely needed
- Will need to finalize these after designs are finalized but should start to get an idea now
- Then figure out what the best ways are to implement them
- Encoders? Gyros? Limit Switches? Vision? Line Following? etc. etc.
- Determine what other electrical components we need for the next season --> probably some motor controllers and such but how many? what type? etc.
- Begin framework of 2019 robot code, and as soon as drivetrain is decided (ie. 3 mini-CIMs per side & encoders etc.) this code can be written
- Help other subteams
