Easy motion profiling

Is there any way to easily implement motion profiling or odometry on a robot

If you use PROS okapi works, but other than that… no.

odometry is really advanced stuff so you can’t just… implement it. Check out 5225A’s documentation on how this stuff works.

Thanks for the shout-out; we also now have a couple videos up explaining odometry and other relevant programming topics. This may be a more approachable/easier-to-understand format than the doc.

Also, if you’re going to get into any odometry-like math, I would highly recommend that you learn vectors first if you haven’t already. 3Blue1Brown has a great video on this, and many more on other relevant topics.

I mean… it’s much less complicated that what 5225A’s document makes it out to be.
