relic-recovery Build Status

Code used by ACME Robotics (FTC Team #8367) during the 2017-2018 season, Relic Recovery.

Overview

FtcDashboard Module

  • com.acmerobotics.dashboard — The backend for a websocket-based dashboard. It delivers telemetry and information about the robot's pose and current path for visualization. Additionally, it uses reflection to facilitate configuration variables that can be set while an OpMode is running. More information can be found in the dashboard repo.
    • RobotDashboard.getInstance() can be used to get an instance of the dashboard. Telemetry messages can be sent through sendTelemetryPacket() (including the field overlay) or alternatively through getTelemetry() (note that the Telemetry instance returned only implements the most commonly-used methods of that interface). Numeric telemetry values are automatically available to graph over time.
    • Configuration variables can be set up by annotating classes that contain configurable fields with @Config. Then static, non-final variables of common types will be automatically added as configuration variables. Whenever the values of these variables are changed in the dashboard, the changes will be automatically applied (note that changes made through the dashboard do not persist between app restarts).

RobotLib Module

  • com.acmerobotics.library.cameraoverlay — Contains the server for a simple DS camera overlay stream. It takes bitmaps from OpenCV/Vuforia, encodes them into JPEGs, and sends them to the client running on the DS (similar to MJPEG).
    • CameraStreamServer automatically creates a TCP socket that listens for connections from the corresponding client running on the DS. Once connected, send() can be used to send bitmaps to be displayed on the DS side. Alternatively, getTracker() returns a tracker that can be seamlessly integrated with the vision model described below.
    • The DS camera overlay app (client) is located in the CameraOverlay module.

  • com.acmerobotics.library.hardware — Contains a few standard drivers for sensors used this season and in the past. Most notably, the Sharp IR sensor response has been linearized to provide actual distance. In addition, there is code to bypass the read window for REV hub I2C devices to cut down on unnecessary reads (REV I2C command duration is linear in the number of registers).

    • LynxOptimizedI2cFactory.createLynxI2cDeviceSynch() can be used to create I2cDeviceSynch instances for REV without the read window to improve performance.
  • com.acmerobotics.library.localization — Immutable localization primitives.

  • com.acmerobotics.library.motion — Contains generic, jerk-limited profile generation code and PID(F) controllers. Although primarily used for drivetrain motion, the motion profiling code can be used for any mechanism. The PID controller implementation is fairly standard and includes extensions for velocity and acceleration feedforward.

    • MotionProfileGenerator.generateProfile() uses the provided start state, goal state, and constraints to generate a 1D, jerk-limited motion profile. The MotionProfile instance can then be used to find the MotionState at any point in time (all profiles are continuous).
  • com.acmerobotics.library.path — Provides basic path constructs and trajectory generation based on the aforementioned 1D motion profiling system. The path primitives include point turns and pure translations as well as cubic and quintic Hermite splines. These primitives can be arbitrarily combined into fluid, continuous trajectories.

  • com.acmerobotics.library.vision — Contains a unified interface for switching between Vuforia-based and OpenCV-based camera views, including a generic overlay system that even allows drawing on Vuforia camera views. Also defines a tracker system used for managing different detectors.

  • com.acmerobotics.library.util — Supporting utility classes and data structures.

  • com.acmerobotics.relicrecovery.configuration — OpMode configuration activity and supporting types for various game elements.

  • com.acmerobotics.relicrecovery.vision — OpenCV-based trackers (detectors/pipelines) for various field elements. FixedJewelTracker detects the position of the jewels by looking in predefined circular regions. DynamicJewelTracker is a more standard blob detector that filters based on color and filters using various features. OldCryptoboxTracker is also a fairly standard blob detector that uses the rails to determine the position of the cryptobox. CryptoboxTracker takes a slightly different (and more robust) approach. Instead of looking at the rails directly, it looks for white blobs inside of rail blobs and constructs a grid of points where the white tape intersects the rails.

TeamCode Module

  • com.acmerobotics.relicrecovery.localization — Various localization methods used by the drivetrain (MecanumDrive).

    • TrackingOmniLocalizer fuses positional data from two arbitrarily-positioned tracking omnis and an IMU to maintain an accurate estimate of the robot's pose.
  • com.acmerobotics.relicrecovery.opmodes — Contains all OpModes and a few additional classes to aid in their creation.

  • com.acmerobotics.relicrecovery.subsystems — Contains subsystem classes that abstract low-level hardware interactions. The Robot class handles updating the myriad subsystems. The subsystem update thread is constantly running in the background, maximizing the REV hub communication bus utilization.

    • MecanumDrive uses LynxGetBulkInputDataCommand to read all encoders on a given hub for faster control loops.

CameraOverlay Module

DS camera overlay app that receives frames from the RC.

VisionTest Module
