ROBOT DAY 2/8/09

Today our focus was to develop the new, faster turret and update the automatic calibration in the software.

We added player capability to allow real-time modification of the blobfinder specs (screenshot below).




We also wrote the specs on calibration and settings saving, autosaving, loading, and logging. This will be implemented in the coming days.

Daniel developed boards for the infrared limit switches (the limit switches are shown below). These will be incorporated into the motor controllers (still on order) and the existing Arduino microcontrollers.
