Create semi-autonomous Turner object to test out semi-autonomous programming #4

Open mcolinj opened 5 years ago

mcolinj commented 5 years ago

Create a subdirectory for some various semi-autonomous features. Start with Turner(gyro, amount, speed, time-limit), and see what you can do.

We'll need methods to indicate time has expired, to do the work, and to clean up if it thinks it is done.

In the main robot loop we'll just either being doing something semi-autonomous, or doing the robot thing. However, we should maybe at least look for the driver or operator taking back control?

I found some example code from the NavX folks that should be useful. They don't have sample code for Python, but you could work from the C++ implementation and do pretty well. It is a decent place to start. Maybe we can get it nice and clean and give it to the kauailabs folks for their web site.

You can hook a NavX directly to a windows laptop over USB and look at the data coming from it using this application. (looks like it could be illuminating)
