Week 3 – 2019 – James

Hi guys. Today I finally figured out the hint bits in the senior Robocup Junior competition.

As I showed you last week, the hints looked like tiny green squares which were tucked in a certain corner. They are used for telling where the robot should go.

Sorry but my code was not uploaded but i’ll try to explain it as best as possible.

So my hint detector would run when either the left and right sensor was on the silver or when both sensors were on green or black.

If the left sensor was on green, the robot displayed on the screen “Found hint”. It would be the same if that happened to the right sensor. But if both were on silver, the robot would stop till the robot starts up his can finding algorithm.

Sometimes it incorrectly identified what it was on. To resolve that problem I made 1 as the B number in the math calculation. Next time it worked and was consistently working after that.

Next week, I’ll enhance the hint detector and finish the hint bit. (Well, maybe).

Before I go here’s the word of the day.

Mindset: The established set of attitudes held by someone.

And also, here’s the phrase of the day

Bye guys…
