Dankest Vex Memes?

I don’t believe I am qualified to interpret Thanos side of the joke, but I feel word “balanced” must play some role…

New V5 inertial sensor contains MEMS gyroscope and accelerometer and when subjected to mechanical vibrations (when robot tumbles from roller to roller on the omni wheels) both will return a lot of measurment noise.

@technik3k

isolating gyro from vibration is very important:

Gyro drift mechanical improvements

Second modification, gyro moved to the top of the robot and isolated using rubber couplers.

This shows significant improvement, but, is that because the gyro has moved away from the drive motors or is there less vibration?

…

So my conclusion based on these simple tests is that vibration created by the motors running is the cause of some gyro drift, moving the gyro away from the source of the vibration and isolating it using rubber couplers helps. I have no idea if this significantly effects the gyro accuracy when actually running the robot on the ground.
