Get Gyro to work <TOP PRIORITY> #8

The Gyro on the RoboRio needs to be programmed so we can start developing the Autonomous System for the robot.

The only issue is that, Our Gyro is not hooked up to any of the Analog Ports, So, we can not use Robot Builder to put the Gyro into the Code since Robot Builder uses AnalogGyro Class which handles Gyros hooked up to the Analog Ports not the Gyro Class that Handles all of the Gyros that was supplied by FRC.

The name for the Gyro in WPILib is ADXRS450

Alright, looked at the implementation, seems easy enough. We do need to figure out how calibration works, though, don't know what we need to do exactly.

Either way, doesn't look too bad.

Brekmister commented 8 years ago

Yeah I am currently working on it. I just found out how to add new sensors in a robotbuilder export without robotbuilder. Then its just things like GetAngle(), Calibrate() and Reset()

C++ has wierd way of doing pointers however

webtekz commented 8 years ago

Alright, sounds good.

And it does. C++ is weird in general.

Btw, I imagine you are talking about the unique_ptr
