Aiming and Ranging Simultaneously

This example combines aiming and range adjustment into one method. https://thumbs.gfycat.com/UncommonIncomparableDassierat-size_restricted.gif This example uses code from the aiming and range adjustment examples and puts everything together into one simple function. Using this, you can get your robot “close” and then use code to automatically aim and drive to the correct distance.

float KpAim = -0.1f;
float KpDistance = -0.1f;
float min_aim_command = 0.05f;

std::shared_ptr<NetworkTable> table = NetworkTable::GetTable("limelight");
float tx = table->GetNumber("tx");
float ty = table->GetNumber("ty");

if (joystick->GetRawButton(9))
{
float heading_error = -tx;
float distance_error = -ty;
float steering_adjust = 0.0f;

if (tx > 1.0)
{
steering_adjust = KpAim*heading_error - min_aim_command;
}
else if (tx < -1.0)
{
steering_adjust = KpAim*heading_error + min_aim_command;
}

float distance_adjust = KpDistance * distance_error;

left_command += steering_adjust + distance_adjust;
right_command -= steering_adjust + distance_adjust;
}
