Autonomous Actions
We split it up into three stages.
1. Approach the pegs.
2. Put Ubertube on pegs.
3. Ending action.
Approach pegs
When we approach the pegs we have a few different scenarios.
1. If we start on the far left/right line (the straight ones) then we simply go forward while following the line (or use dead reckoning and ignore the lines, either way go forward and stop when we reach the pegs)
2. If we start on the center line we go down to the fork and select a path, then turn to face the pegs.
3. We can do nothing during autonomous.
Put Ubertube on pegs
Simple enough. Put the Ubertube on
1. The top peg
2. The middle peg
3. The bottom peg
Ending Action
We have a few actions we can do after the Ubertube is put on the peg (assuming there is time at the end of the autonomous period)
1. Do nothing
2. Turn around and wait.
3. Drive (backwards) to midfield
4. Turn around and drive to midfield
5. Block opponents feeding station
To tell the robot which set of actions to perform you select an autonomous mode using the classmate or a paper handbook, which tells you three numbers that you plug in using a keypad on the driver’s station. The robot understands and runs based on the numbers. (Example 000 tells the robot to do nothing during autonomous).
