 | | Code-only Line-tracking competition —David Schilling
|
| | | You can enter the WORKSHOP 3D LEGO RCX Challenge - a robot competition to be held in Seattle on October 6th - even if you don't want to travel here. There will be a "code only" line-tracking event that anyone can enter. Build a "standard robot" at (...) (23 years ago, 7-Sep-01, to lugnet.robotics, lugnet.robotics.rcx)

| | | | | Hi there, (...) In the official rule page ((URL) it says: "Robots may be programmed with any software at your disposal" but that is hardly the case for the code only competition? though I couldn't find any explicit writing about the rules there...

| | | | | | (...) Good question. We DO have plenty o' RCX at our disposal. If you have specific firmware requirements, hook us up with them, and we will do our best to get one configured the way you want it. (23 years ago, 7-Sep-01, to lugnet.robotics)

| | | | | | Hi, (...) I would personally like to have an RCX with leJOS 1.0.2 at my disposal if I'm granted access to participate... How many participants can you handle? To me it seems like you could get thousands for the "code only" contest! Regards, Martin (...) (23 years ago, 7-Sep-01, to lugnet.robotics)

| | | | | | (...) We wish! I'm pretty sure we'll be able to handle all the entries we get. We'll start worrying (and come up with some contingency plan) when we start getting dozens of registrations per day! Code on! -- David Schilling (23 years ago, 7-Sep-01, to lugnet.robotics)

| | | | Well, it's been a few weeks since the Workshop 3D RCX Challenge, and all the other results were in a long time ago, but we finally have the results for the code-only event. Since tab characters seem to disappear in these posts, and a table is (...) (23 years ago, 28-Oct-01, to lugnet.robotics, lugnet.robotics.rcx, lugnet.robotics.events, lugnet.org.us.smart)

| | | | | (...) David, thanks for putting this contest on. I admit that I was intrigued when it was announced but did not have time to put an entry together. The idea of a code-only competition on a standard hardware platform is brilliant and opens up the (...)

| | | | (...) I don't know anything about this competition, but can't you just store the black line and the table as two different variables and have your program pick the halfway point and use that in its decision making when line-following? Of course, you (...) (23 years ago, 30-Oct-01, to lugnet.robotics, lugnet.org.us.smart)

| | | | (...) Yes, that is indeed how you must do it. But there are two things that make this more difficult: first of all, the surface is highly reflective (while the line itself is flat). You'll get a high percentage of light return even if the light (...) (23 years ago, 31-Oct-01, to lugnet.robotics, lugnet.org.us.smart)
