Tuesday 30th of June: TUlip: Judgement Day!

Another monotonous day of programming. The motion team spent the day building new and tweaking old states, a few heavy discussions ensued. As of ten o'clock tonight the robot was able to; side-step, kick, and (barely) turn. Yutaro has had a tough time getting the walk cycle to work, hopefully more on this tomorrow.

The vision team spent most of the day trying to figure out why their program was crashing, and with succes! Apparently an encoder was shortcircuiting... Back at the Stadthalle a mixed team of Twente and Eindhoven defended our robo-stand, and attempted to rebuild a torque controller.

Regulations demanded that TUlip be at RoboCup by 6 o'clock so judges can take his measure. Tomorrow will be a big day for us. We look forward to our first victory over the Iranian team, appearantly they are no-show. Our second match will also be tomorrow, and TUlip is gonna kick some ass!
