<h1>Romi Project #1: Bang Bang</h1>
39+
<h2 id="Introduction">Introduction</h2>
40+
<p>A Bang-bang controller is defined as controlling a plant with two
41+
states: on and off. This on state is applied when we went are system to
42+
perform an action, while off serves as the "idle" state. In our specific
43+
example, the drivetrain of the Romi would continue to drive until its
44+
distance equals or is higher than the desired distance. If you are
45+
interested in learning more, this <a href=
46+
"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bang%E2%80%93bang_control">Wikipedia</a>
47+
article is a great starting point.</p>
48+
<h2 id="Goal">Project Goal</h2>
49+
<p>Your goal is simply to have the Romi drivetrain move forward and then
50+
stop after a certain distance.</p>
51+
<h2 id="Recommendation">Recommendation</h2>
52+
<p>While there are many different solutions to achieve the goal, one
53+
recoomendation could be:</p>
54+
<ul>
55+
<li>Make a drive function that takes in a distance (in meters)</li>
56+
<li>Apply voltage to the Romi motors constantly</li>
57+
<li>Have logic to set the voltage to 0 once that distance is met</li>
58+
</ul>
59+
<blockquote>
60+
<i>Note:</i> For this project, it does not matter if you run your code in
61+
either the telop or autonomous period. However, its recommended to place
62+
your code into autonomous to practice creating autons.
63+
</blockquote>
64+
<h2 id="Tutorial">Project Setup</h2>
65+
<p>Type CTRL+SHIFT+P in Visual Studio Code, and type "Create a new project"
66+
(Should have WPILib tagged in front of it). The wizard should appear. For
67+
the project type, select "Template", "cpp", and then "Romi - Timed Robot".
68+
Next, selected where to store your project. Team number doesn't matter, but
69+
you may type your team number if you want to. Make sure to select "Desktop
70+
Support". Once done, click "Create".</p>
71+
<blockquote>
72+
<i>Note:</i> The project needs to have an empty folder to be created. If
73+
you intend to place your robot project into a Git repo, create it
74+
somewhere else, and then copy it into it.

<h1>Romi Project #2: PID Controller</h1>

<h2 id="Introduction">Introduction</h2>

<p>A PID controller is a feedback controller (), in which you are able to

set a reference (or a goal), and be able to reach that goal while the 3

terms are able to correct for slight lapses (or errors) during the journey
43+
to reach that goal. If you are interested in learning more, this <a href=

<h1>Romi Setup</h1>

<h2 id="Introduction">Introduction</h2>
40+
<p>Romis are small, inexpensive robots where students are able to program
41+
them using the same tools used for regular FRC competition bots. It's
42+
imaged with wpilibpi, meaning that its possible to implement solutions like
43+
vision on to it, making it a great learning tool for newer software
44+
students.</p>
