It’s as close to real-world engineering as a student can get. High-school student participants call it “the hardest fun you’ll ever have.” Under strict rules, limited resources, and an intense six-week time limit, teams of 20 or more students are challenged to raise funds, design a team "brand," hone teamwork skills, and build and program industrial-size robots to play a difficult field game against like-minded competitors.
From FIRST’s website “We call FIRST Robotics Competition the ultimate Sport for the Mind. Thus, they work best for detecting hard, flat objects.Welcome to the sub-reddit for the international First Robotics Competition (FRC). In order to minimize this, the roboRIO can run ping-response ultrasonics in a “round-robin” fashion - however, in competition, there is no sure way to ensure that interference from sensors mounted on other robots does not occur.įinally, ultrasonics may not be able to detect objects that absorb sound waves, or that redirect them in strange ways. Ultrasonic sensors are also susceptible to interference from other ultrasonic sensors. The documentation for ultrasonic sensors will generally include a picture of the “beam pattern” that shows the shape of the “window” in which the ultrasonic will detect a target - pay close attention to this when selecting your sensor. From the measured time and the speed of sound in air, it is possible to calculate the distance. Ultrasonic rangefinders work by emitting a pulse of high-frequency sound, and then measuring how long it takes the echo to reach the sensor after bouncing off the target. They are cheap, easy-to-use, and fairly reliable. provided the device is not modified except to facilitate mounting. Ultrasonic rangefinders are some of the most common rangefinders used in FRC®. Thus, it is extremely important to pick the right sensor for the job. Im looking to implement an ultrasonic sensor into my teams robot this year to assist.
As ultrasonics work by measuring the time between the pulse and its echo, they generally measure distance only to the closest target in their range. Ultrasonic sensors are generally quite easy to use, however there are a few caveats.
