Missing ev3 file and project status #1

Open JAGulin opened 6 years ago

JAGulin commented 6 years ago

The readme mentions a "misc/Rubiks Solver.ev3" file that I don't see in the git. Where can it be found? Simple modifications to the MindCub3r project?

Also, if you could clarify a bit about project status it would be nice. Is it fully functioning or work in progress?

This is exactly the project I'd like to get working. If abandoned, do you know of other similar efforts to join?

Hi @JAGulin,

The readme mentions a "misc/Rubiks Solver.ev3" file that I don't see in the git. Where can it be found? Simple modifications to the MindCub3r project?

I didn't use version control while developing .ev3 files and my workspace was a little mess at that time. Right now, I have several .ev3 files in my workspace and I don't know which one to use for this project.

Anyway, it isn't based on MindCub3r's and it's really easy to reproduce it. What it did is just listening for messages and act according to it. For example:

It doesn't contain any sophisticated things because everything else has been handled on the Android side. Soon I'm going to upload the file which I think is the correct one. Please tell me if I uploaded the wrong file.

Also, if you could clarify a bit about project status it would be nice. Is it fully functioning or work in progress?

This project has been completed and is fully functional, well, with a flaw. It's intended for a competition on my campus 3 years ago but unfortunately I didn't won. I have tested it on my room and it works well, but when I tried to bring it for the competition, because of different lighting condition, it failed to differ red and orange.

I have an video about how it performs but I can't upload it right now because the edited video isn't on my hand right now.

This is exactly the project I'd like to get working. If abandoned, do you know of other similar efforts to join?

Ah, nice to know. Well, you can fork this repository if you want and do some experiment with it. You can freely ask me and I'll answer in my leisure time.
