This code is released from Team 1418's 2014 robot. Team 1418 had one of their best years yet in 2014.
They had a dominating performance at Richmond at the Virginia Regional, finishing as the #2 seed, and led the #2 alliance to the finals with teams 2383 and 435. They were awarded the Industrial Design award for a variety of reasons, including their simple but effective robot design, multiple autonomous modes and useful touchscreen driver station interface.
At the Greater DC Regional, they had a rocky start and ended up finishing as the 7th seed, but led the #6 alliance to the finals with teams 1885 and 2537.
- Full pyfrc integration for testing & robot simulation
- Unit tests over the robot code with 70% code coverage
- Complex autonomous mode support
- Multiple working autonomous modes used in competition
- Two balls - uses a gyro to make sure the robot drives straight
- Single ball shoot
- Single ball hot goal shoot
- Automatic support for tuning the autonomous mode parameters via the UI
- Multiple working autonomous modes used in competition
- Automation of core catapult functions
- Mechanum drive
The autonomous mode stuff will be rolled into pyfrc in the near future, so that it can be used by more teams.
The robot code is written in Python, and so to run it you must install RobotPy onto the robot. Refer to the instructions accompanying RobotPy for more information.
With the pyfrc library installed, you can deploy the code onto the robot by running robot.py with the following arguments:
$ python robot.py upload
This will run the unit tests and upload the code to the robot of your choice.
The robot code has full integration with pyfrc. You can use the various simulation/testing options of the code by running robot.py directly. With pynetworktables installed, you can use netsim mode of pyfrc to test the robot code and the driver station UI together.
