2019robotcode

This repository consists of FRC 7528's code for our 2019 robot. Our code is written in Java and is based off of the WPILib framework. It was written using IntelliJ IDEA and VSCode. This README file explains setup instructions, a breakdown of what each package does, as well as acknowledgments.

Also See: The repository 2019Vision, which contains the source code ran on our vision coprocessor. It was successfully able to track the hatch and the cargo.

Package Breakdown

• java.frc.robot

Contains the central control classes for the robot. The Robot class controls all robot functions based on the state of the match.

• frc.robot.auto

Contains classes that handle the execution of automodes during the sandstorm period of each match.

• frc.robot.auto.actions

Contains singular actions (ie, drive forward, shoot ball, open solenoids, etc) that the robot executes while in autonomous mode. All Actions share an Interface entitled Action.java which is also present in this class.

• frc.robot.auto.modes

Contains whole automodes, which consist of a routine of autonomous actions arranged in a certain order.

• frc.robot.common

Contains code that is shared between different classes. Usually used for constants.

• frc.robot.components

Contains code for the different mechanical components of our robot.

Acknowledgments

We would like to thank Team 254 for inspiring our autonomous code.

We would also like to thank the sponsors and mentors of Team 7528 for making this robot possible :)
