Today is the big competition. There was a total of 10 teams competing. This competition was held on the second floor in the Engineering building on the Cal State Fullerton campus. The exhibition began with an introduction by a member from the Robotics of Southern California Club. The day of the competition we still had to remove the pauses in our code. We borrow a classmates laptop to download the revised code to our robot, but the robot was not responding to the program. At the very last second we have to reprogram the robot from scratch which included downloading the master files.
During our first run, our robot did not straighten out after the first scan or after the first can was rejected. After a quick restart, the same problem occurred. The target can was just out of the scanning area. For our third attempt, the cans were moved and we ran out of time.
Out of the 10 groups, our team placed in 4th. While our robot did not have its best performance this day, it did have a decent showing.
