Vex Bot Last Chance 2/11

Today will be our last day to complete our robot. We will need to make any final changes to our code and robot before the end of the day. We believe that the components of the robot are sufficient to complete all tasks required to complete the objective. At the end of the day, theoretically, our robot will be able to navigate the entire field to locate a can as well as place the can into the corresponding color zone. Below is a video of our robot starting from the green zone searching for a blue can. The first can the robot encounters is a green can. The robot knows this is the wrong color so it rejects the can and continues searching for the blue can. The blue can is the second can is comes across. The robot then attempts to center itself and proceed across the field to the blue zone. At the end, the line sensor was unable to detect the first black line but does catch the second. The color sensor had already crossed the blue section so the robot knew it was in the blue section and dropped the can.

Video Coming Soon

Tomorrow we will test our robot in a tournament of about 10 entries. Stay tuned for results.
