Season Challenges:

  • Vision processing: This year our programming team decided to attempt vision again. Although we were unsuccessful in this endeavor, the team did implement a sort of “cross hair” using cameras which allowed our drivers to line up with the basket quite nicely. This also ‘netted’ us the innovation in control award.
