Fourth Weekend

It is the fourth weekend of the build season. We have our kicker running and the camera is up and finding the target. We have made progress in building. The programming team is all set to run the robot autonomously. We are able to sense the ball and target and kick during the autonomous period of the game. They are waiting for a robot to test . We have the target and goal built, so that we can practice kicking the soccer balls into the goal. We are now working on the tower for the use at St. Pauls practice field. Finally we are actually building two robots. A tread based robot is being constructed now that the parts have finished being machined. We are also building a four wheeled machanum robot and we are hopefully testing the robots next week to see which works better.
