This week we focused on the code for the reverse perpendicular parking procedure. We believe we have good results as shown in the video below.
However we did discover a new problem. Our code has used a timer to judge how far the car should move forward after detecting a spot. However, when the batteries begin to lose voltage it seems that the car's speed slows down which causes erratic behavior. To help combat this problem we purchased an octocoupler that way we can judge the open space by recording the actual distance instead of just using an unreliable timer.
