The massive differnece from this Autonomous to every other autonomous is how risky you are with collecting that sample, every team takes like the extra half second but you guys risk it.
We "risk it for the biscuit." 😂 But, yeah, this auto is crazy. One tiny error and you go from a five to a three or a complete meltdown... which is why we did not risk it in comp at our LM2 a few weeks ago. We used our dependable 4. But we just made massive hardware changes this week, so we're bringing back the five. It will be ready for LM3 on Jan. 18.
@@23213opensource What might be quicker and with Proxima Nova's 6 specimen autonomous plan #25631, is that you could get like a claw at the back to get the specimen, and then create a transfer system that would make you not have to turn and save like up to 2-5 seconds maybe. With Proxima Nova's 6 specimen autonomous plan, they hold a sample (their alliance colour) hook their specimen on and drop the sample and then create a specimen from it. Your robot should be quick enough to do that as well, while some may say it violates a code (can't remember the name) it shouldn't as it has to be in for more than 3 seconds.
This was experimenting with pedro pathing not roadrunner. And the answer is with a lot of risk lol. It was too fast - actually damaged a tile - and inconsistent for LM2, but we're making some hardware changes and hoping to have it ready for our LM3 mid January.
How does your human player align the specimen with the wall each time so that the robot picks it up? If you guys are running roadrunner or pedropathing, how consistent is it with going to the same spot each time, and what other sensors are you guys using to align?
HP uses the little holes in the top of the perimeter (black part) to align. We're experimenting with both RR and Pedro right now. Both are consistent on pickup. Slightest rotational drift at the chamber toward the end of the run that we're currently correcting. We're not using any other sensors to align right now. Hasn't been too problematic, but when we compete on a new field our programmer has to make micro adjustments. We're hoping to involve a Limelight camera but we just haven't had the time yet.

All I can say right now is... stay tuned. 🤫
So how did Yall get road runner to go this fast?

From 10354 we’re so fried
It's buggy still. Tomorrow at LM2 we're using our four. Determined to have the consistent 5 after Christmas.
what library did you guys use? RR or pedro?
This was experimenting with pedro. In competition, we're using RR. It seems more reliable in the turns.
Good stuff guys!
