LiftTracker

Vision Tracking for the 2017 FRC Game

Here are the steps to get this working:

• Clone the repository, using git clone https://github.com/TheGuyWhoCodes/LiftTracker.git
• Make sure you have the opencv library downloaded, and Network Tables 3.0 (included)
• Import the project into Eclipse, and go to your build path and add the included NetworkTables jar, and opencv-XXX.jar that you downloaded
• Change the variables inside the code to your situation, and calculate the distance constant (tutorial in my post here)
• Open the .grip file included inside of GRIP. Tune your HSV values to your liking using your webcam and go to Tools->Generate code
• Using the Generate Code feature will export a *.java file. Open that file and copy all the code, and replace the LiftTracker.java code inside the project
• After that, export it as a runnable jar, (File->Export->Java->Runnable JAR file).
• Run the jar file using java -jar blahblahblah.jar
• Vision Track!

If you have any issues, open up an issue and I'll be happy to look at it.
