@@joshuafrank1246 they are. Certainly a lot of help is gained from the mentors and other people, but students are very well versed. I was talking to some of the students from 254 on what they did individually on the team, and my god a lot of them are very smart.

There’s no way they use limelight too much, they had to have used odometry lol, otherwise how would they constantly shoot opposing cargo into their hangar?
We don't track x and y relative to a set point on the field by default, just our start auton position (don't have to reconcile conflicting odometry/vision data). We do use robot heading from gyro in that cargo ejecting math though, along with most recent LL observation
This video really emphasizes the Poofs being on a different level than other teams. These guys really know their stuff
these guys are so articulate and explain everything so well
Best of luck to them, rookie teams typically struggle in FRC
Lmao
Me watching their total championship wins:
Lol someone screamed hog rider in the background
That was me lol
@@P0PE lol
that robot is just so damn slick man
Carbon Fiver tubes, 3d printed parts, aluminum climber. I am curious how the weight of the bot was taken in account during the design phase.
I was talking about how 1678s outtake sometimes shoots balls across the field making it harder for the other side to play, I guess 254 does the same.
Always be poopin. Or in 254's case, super poopin.
@@clintott1991 projectile poopin
When the worst VRC game’s meta transfers over to one of the best FRC games
so well engineered in terms of both hardware and software based. Can't believe these are high schools student's ideas, and implementations.
Helps to have an incredible set of mentors
They aren’t high school student’s ideas

OMG NO WAY ITS PRANAV BUDHIA AND SHAUNAK WARTY 👀 they are so cool omg I can’t wait to meet them in person I heard they’re super dope
Maybe some day
Fr, they seem like cool people.
🐐🐐
NO WAY SHAUNAK I LOVE YOU
the code on the bot is incredible
This team has won both ftc and vrc this year. Full credit to them but massive orgs do kinda have a huge advantage.
Holy crap, the software on this thing is next level.
Looks awesome, just curious, how come the shooter flywheel and serializer wheels are constantly spinning slowly while enabled?
It helps them spin up faster and they are quicker to stabilize as they have already overcome static friction
@@Nity6000 oh Interesting, and that's true for the indexer wheels as well?

@@loganpiercy3892 ohhh thanks!
So awesome to see Bay Area teams doing soo well
That level of odometry is crazy where can I find the code

You guys should come by 5454 pit
Yeah
lets go cheesy poofs
