WELL, truth be told, what Derek told us really scared me. from my
current speed of (bleep) the thought of having to shave off 4 more
seconds....
I just knew I could NOT do it in software. i took a look at my code and
i can safely say that ALL the wait statements are gone.
So, how about hardware. I took my robot apart and started to rebuild it
with faster gearing but at a cost of lower torque.
guess what, the darn thing would not move. (I even contemplated some
sort of jelly lube for me and the robot) All i could do was return the
robot to its former state. So i am stuck. YES, you read it hear first
folks. unless I get an epiphany or something I am at the wall. you all
have a known time to beat.
good luck.
As I said at dinner all I can work on is accuracy. and that damn Blue
Screen Of Death -- freeze.
i just don't get it. the robot will now solve the anti-x reliably, but
I am getting a 50% DROP in success of solving almost ANY other pattern.
And by this I mean the same software under the same conditions and the
robot just FREEZE's half the time.
ARGH!!
