Our autonomous is done and tuned for regional championship. We are also working with Vuforia and OpenCV for Super Regionals, and we might change the order we press the beacons. We also tested and updated all of our pit crew/calibration/motor

This is the new mathcad sheet that translates the variables that we feed in to find the horizontal distance capable of launching the ball, given the angle at which we launch the ball (which was the variable that we changed

During one of our matches at the last qualifier, our phones went into an update mode and locked up. We decided to disable the update feature on the phones to prevent this from happening in the future. Steps to disable

The new shooter was modified to better mimick the trajectory of the original shooter, which has been used in all our competitions even though broken. The main change between the new and the old shooters is that in the new

Our autonomous and teleop worked very well at the Wylie East qualifier, though we need to make some changes to the code base: 1. Add “backup” autonomous opmodes where we don’t go for the beacons (in case our partner has
