Stuy Zero Robotics Google Group

Calculating position from noisy distance measurements

blakeel...@gmail.com (Blake Elias) — Wed, 05 Dec 2012 21:02:49 UT

In my statistics class we went through an example problem similar to what
you guys have to solve this year. Why don't you guys read through the PDF I
attached and see if you can apply it to your problem? It might help you
guys deal better with noise on the ISS.

Thanks Blake! I'm definitely going to try to get in to see this.

Update: you actually need to go here to sign up.

That meetup.com thing was just an independent group but it won't get
you into the event. Tickets aren't on sale yet, but you can sign up
to be notified. This is going to be tough to get a seat for...

Hey roboticists,

I just saw this event on meetup.com which sounds super amazing!

Understandable mistake, Jake just really loves our team! Make him proud!

Dear Stuy-Naught,

My apologies, it looks like I had a little slip here. This was of course
meant to go to the internal ZR team. Please disregard the message, and I'd
appreciate it if it is not distributed.

Thanks,
Jake

Something to keep in mind for balancing

jgk...@mit.edu (Jacob Katz) — Fri, 28 Sep 2012 20:22:32 UT

Hi Team,

One thing I would like you to keep in mind for balancing is seeing if there
is a way to get teams to do a little bit more navigating around the
obstacles instead of going straight through them mostly. It may change the
game up a bit, but that was one of the big things we wanted to see people

ZR Meeting on Monday

blakeel...@gmail.com (Blake Elias) — Sun, 13 May 2012 02:06:24 UT

Come to 411 after school on Monday.

The year's almost over. If you plan on participating in Zero Robotics next
year, it's important that you come to these last few meetings.
The competition starts early next September right when you get back to
school, so there won't be much time to prepare.

Also, I wasn't there for the last meeting, but I was told that one group
presented their code. Whoever that was can you share your code with the
group, write up the same explanation that you presented, and email that to
the group.

ZR meeting on Monday

blakeel...@gmail.com (Blake Elias) — Sat, 28 Apr 2012 20:31:47 UT

Reminder guys:

We're meeting on Monday after 10th in 411.

Everyone seems pretty close to done with the orbit program, so finish up
your code before Monday and be ready to present.

Meeting today

blakeel...@gmail.com (Blake Elias) — Mon, 23 Apr 2012 16:46:09 UT

Sorry for the late reminder, but there's a meeting today in 411. Pairs who
finished their orbit code will present their solutions. After that, anyone
who didn't finish can keep working on their code (with help from those who
did finish).

Meeting today

Re: [stuy-zero-robotics] How to do Arctan?

eugeneel...@gmail.com (Eugene Lee) — Sun, 22 Apr 2012 16:46:55 UT

I am not at all familiar with Zero Robotics, but perhaps atan(x)?
Worst comes to worst, do your own research!
Cheers,

I think atan2f() but you should use the API online!

How to do Arctan?

beni.kestel...@gmail.com (benedictusk) — Sun, 22 Apr 2012 16:44:08 UT

Is there a function to get the arctan of a number?
