nxtcam line tracking PID, ball retrieva. now with lolcaptions!

UPDATE: I've posted the source code. I don't have the NXT platform to test it again, so let me know if the code works (in case I post the wrong one).

I'll fill in some more details later for this beta version of my robot. Briefly, the code is in NXC, I use Lego Mindstorms and the NXT Camera. To follow the line I use a simple PID. To get close to the ball I don't use one but I should (and will in Version 2!). The robot uses the sonar to find objects by the road. it uses the light sensor to detect whether it found the right object.

I intend to clean up my code and release it later this summer. If I don't, please bug me about it!

Not sure which summer you wre referring too, but if it was the one of 2009, then I think you are a bit late. Would you mind sharing it ?

[lutherdriggers]

@ramacc0 ok... OK! done. :D see the description

[cardsfan617]

your captions suck

[lutherdriggers]

@cardsfan617 more objectively, they are superfluous. You meant to say you don't like lolspeak?

Share your code please! That would be much appreciated. I'm working on line tracking with the NXT camera but haven't been having much luck with it tracking lines correctly. Thanks so much.

@Brendan112358 probably a bit late for you now anyway, right?
