Testing time!

Today we tested the line tracking with a longer course that has a hump and sharper turns.

We decided to switch to normal wheels for this task because the mecanum wheels struggled with sharper turns and the hump. We also found that if we made the middle colour sensor less sensitive it would work better because it only tracked a small width.

We also made a course for the escape route challenge and tried to use the ultrasonic sensor.

We ran into a few issues though like bad accuracy and odd distance readings.

We stabilized it by taking a median of five readings at each instance.

Finally for the eco-disaster challenge tests, we got some empty coke cans, filled them with stones to get a weight of 46g and we are all set. Our bot and chassis are stable (even comfortable with 3 cans at a time). Test run below:
