  2. Before We Start Anyone with these issues please speak up before we get started: • Classmate Restore Stick Issues • Software Installation Issues • Anything else that we can set the computers to now and let them do their thing during the KOP discussion

  3. Agenda KOP 1st Week Issues New in 2012 New Components Changes from 2012 Software Installation Documents Presentation (and the links it contains) is located at: http://www.team358.org/files/workshops/

  4. KOP • Rookie vs. Vet Kits • KOP consists of: • Physical KOP bins/boxes • Vouchers from: • Automotive Recyclers (voucher in KOP) • Banebots (code in TIMS) • Digikey (voucher in KOP) • Inventables (voucher in KOP) • Bimba (http://www.bimba.com/en/FIRST-Form/) • FIRST Choice - http://www.andymark.com/login.asp

  5. 1st Week Issues • Bad Ribbon Cable • Test by plugging into itself • Simple loop = good • Mobius loop = bad http://www.usfirst.org/sites/default/files/uploadedFiles/Robotics_Programs/FRC/Game_and_Season__Info/2012_Assets/DB37%20Ribbon%20Cable%20Assembly%20-%20Rework%20Instructions.pdf • Camera Setup Utility • Doesn’t work properly with old Axis 206 model • Create FRC/FRC admin acct., set IP 10.xx.yy.11 • Trouble Imaging cRIO • Jaguar Firmware 101 (CAN-only) http://www.ti.com/jaguar

  6. 1st Week Issues • Some Incorrect Restore Sticks Distributed • Bad 2010 Classmate E09 Image Sticks http://www.usfirst.org/sites/default/files/uploadedFiles/Robotics_Programs/FRC/Game_and_Season__Info/2012_Assets/Creating_a_USB_drive_for_2012_Classmate_Image_Restoration_Rev0.pdf Team # 3450 & higher 2011/12 Classmate Teams 1 to 3449 & lower 2010 Classmate

  7. 1st Week Issues • Software Installation Issues • Lots of pieces this year • Wind River installer issue - Update v2993 http://firstforge.wpi.edu/sf/frs/do/listReleases/projects.wpilib/frs.2012_update_for_c • Java Plugins - delete sunspotsdk folder & reinstall, upgrade to latest JavaBeans

  8. New in 2012 • cRIO FRC II • Motors – lots more • Electric Solenoid – push or pull devices, no greater than 1 in. stroke and no greater than 10 watts continuous duty at 12v • Catalyst Simulator - PC/web based - play the 2012 game • http://dbsgames.net/games_temp.php?p=1

  9. New Components • cRIO • Old modules in Old cRIOs must be relocated! • FRC II • 4.4” shorter • .63 lbs lighter • 2x memory & storage • Kinect • MaxBotix Sonar • Software

  10. cRIO Module Positions • Old 8-slot cRIO 1-analog 2-digital3-solenoid4-unused5-analog6-digital7-solenoid8-unused • New 4-slot cRIO 1-analog 2-digital3-solenoid4-any

  11. cRIO FRC II CAN optional Pit tethering Optional FRC I FRC II CAN optional Both

  12. CRIO FRC II • The cRIO FRC II adds a protective conformal coating to the electronics helping to guard against metal dust and fragments that work their way into the case from shorting out the circuits. • The original cRIO FRC had user installable gaskets that many teams never used or even knew what they were for.

  13. Kinect • Windows 7 Only • Installation • E09/E11 Classmate OS image stick (optional) • Microsoft SDK (32 or 64-bit) • .NET Framework 4.0 • FRC Kinect Server • Plug in the Kinect • Start the Driver Station • For Testing At Home Only The field will supply it’s own dedicated one

  14. Kinect Operation Kinect SDK Dashboard FRC Kinect Server Playing Field Kiosk Driver Station 10.0.100.15 10.0.100.16

  15. Kinect Programming KinectStickleftArm; KinectStickrightArm; … leftArm = new KinectStick(1); rightArm = new KinectStick(2); … leftArm.getY() leftArm.getRawButton(#) Java KinectStickleftArm(1); KinectStickrightArm(2); leftArm.getY() leftArm.getRawButton(#) Labview C++

  16. Kinect • Good Skeletal Recognition • Laggy Response - Be Real Careful w/Robot • Default Motions Map to 2-Joystick Buttons and Axes • Kinect Enable = both arms in plane & range • Button 1/2 = head to the right/left • Button 3/4 = right/left leg out to side • Button 5/6 = right leg forward/back • Button 7/8 = left leg forward/back • Axis y = arm up/down (left arm = Kinect 1, right arm = Kinect 2) wrist-to-shoulder angle

  17. LV-MaxSonar-EZ1 • Wiring • Standard PWM cable • Connects to Analog Breakout (alternates not easily FRC supported) • Needs a protected mounting • Very Accurate Distance • Report the closest object it sees if it’s in the way • 1/4 inch object up to 4 ft • 1 inch object up to • 11 inch object up to 20 ft

  18. Changes from 2011 • Driver Station • Dashboard • Default Has Kinect Skeleton • Motors • Programming • cRIO Imaging Tool - cRIO diagram, hover mouse over any slot in red or empty and it will tell you the problem or what can go in there • Battery voltage readily available • Kinect data input • LV Compressor & Camera changes • Camera Default(10.xx.yy.11) • Use Camera setup tool • Camera default connection is to the robot bridge • Serve images to both the Driver Station and the cRIO at the same time • Displays on the default Dashboard and is available to the cRIO

  19. Driver Station • No Separate Estop Button • “Driver” User Account Not Required • Any Win7/XP Laptop (Windows 7 Required for Kinect) • Competition power still for Classmates ONLY (19v, 2a barrel connector) • Data Logs • battery, packet loss, cpu usage etc. every 20ms. • Files stored: C://Users/public/Documents/FRC/Log Files • Viewer: C://Program Files (x86)/FRC Driver Station/Driver Station Log File Viewer • Spacebar = E-Stop, Enter=Disable, F1=Enable • Minimum Software Installation
