FIRST Tech Challenge Louisiana – Dean’s List reminder
There is apparently a bug in FTC SDK v4.1 that causes some “deadlock” situations. We saw a few odd things at the scrimmage with one team in particular having lock ups but its not clear they were seeing this specific bug. In any case, the bug occurs in all version <4.2. 4.3 is the latest version that was released late last week, and was small but included some files that were missing in the 4.2 release.
Also 4.3 includes Google “TensorFlow” technology to aid with video recognition of minerals for Sampling. There is a blog post at http://firsttechchallenge.
blogspot.com/2018/11/ tensorflow-machine-learning- technology.html with more details and sample code in the 4.3 release for teams. Details on the changes in 4.2 and 4.3 are at https://github.com/ftctechnh/
