Near-term goals for programming

Art Hare 07 Jan 2009 02:31

This is stuff I'd like to do, which may not coincide nicely with stuff that actually gets done.
Wednesday: More permanent mount for electronics (screws), get WindRiver C/C++ IDE working, get camera working, view camera on laptop, attempt to make simple program, attempt to make simple program using camera
Thursday: Continued work/testing with programming, C++ lessons if interest
Friday, Saturday: Autonomous testing, playing with/configuring sensors, learning about PID loops and other things I can think of
Sunday: Rest if needed, more work if people want.

Another cool thing to try would be to put encoders on the KitBot and see if we can work out traction control. Maybe we can do that instead of autonomous, because autonomous will require all the low-level drive stuff to be working.

I'd vote for mounting encoders and working on some traction control… let me know if there's anything you need built to mount the encoders. Also, perhaps having a full meeting of everyone doing programming on Thursday and discuss C++ and make sure everyone is on the same page and see if having a group workshop would be beneficial… just a thought.

Moved thread to programming forum…
