4 Traction, 2 Omni Wheeled Tank Drive

The overall design was decided before the season started, was not modified thereafter

Drivebase.java CurvatureDrive.java

Early Testing

The code for the drivebase was created in within the first 5 days of the season, was immediately ready to test once the drivebase was handed off to software. There were no physical problems noted as of that time.

Iterations

  • Changed to curvature drive
  • Added a speed limiter to prevent tipping
    • Later on in the season after ECU we found that there was an issue of tipping if stoped abruptly and was driven in the opposite direction. As a result of this we added a check if this happened to limited the speed.
  • Added a quadratic throttle ramp

Path Planning

Paths Files

Within the first week we got characterization and a straight path working on the practice drivebase. It took quite a bit to figure how to do reverse splines, which limited how complex the paths got before Guilford. The practice drivebase was under utilized, it eventually got relegated as a test board.
