Yes, 4 short weeks from today we have to box up the robot and cannot work on it anymore. We do get to tweak things at the competitions, but all major work should be complete 28 days from today.
Our team met again tonight for another 3 hour session, and we worked through some odd issues with the color tracking software. For the most part it seems to be working; tomorrow or Thursday we will be hooking up servos to the camera so that we can pan and tilt the camera through software controls.
We are still having weird issues with some (not all) of our computers connecting to the robot to download updated software. We've found that powering cycling everything, the cRIO and DriverStation, seems to rectify some of these problems.
Tomorrow we are hoping to mount the control board on the robot and download "drive code" to enable it to drive under user control. Check back tomorrow and see how we did.
