(Report on Java Beta Software 2011)
Andrew MerrillSoftware Mentor, FRC Team

Catlin Gabel School
Smart Dashboard New class SmartDashboard Convenient way to log diagnostic info to a remote
display New Java client that runs on desktop/laptop computer Client program automatically displays logged fields
without needing configuration Example:

SmartDashboard.init();SmartDashboard.log("Disabled", "System State");SmartDashboard.log(leftDrive.get(), "Left Drive");SmartDashboard.log(rightDrive.get(), "Right Drive");SmartDashboard.log(rollerAvg, "Roller Avg. Value");SmartDashboard.log(basket.hasBall(), "Ball in Robot");
Safe Motors New interface MotorSafety, new
classes SafePWM and MotorSafetyHelper A safe motor shuts itself off if you stop sending it
PWM signals You configure how long the motor waits until shutoff Motor starts working again when you send it a new
PWM signal Motors controlled by the RobotDrive class are
automatically "safe" Other motors are not "safe" by default Example of making a "safe" Jaguar controlled motor:
Jaguar driveMotor = new Jaguar(1);

driveMotor.setSafetyEnabled(true); driveMotor.setExpiration(5);
Driver Station Enhanced IO New class DriverStationEnhancedIO More access to the Cypress add-on module on the
driver station Example of using
the DriverStationEnhancedIO class: DriverStationEnhancedIO dseio = DriverStation.getInstance().getEnhancedIO(); double accelX = dseio.getAcceleration(dseio.tAccelChannel.kAccelX); double slider = dseio.getTouchSlider(); dseio.setLED(1, true);
Accelerometer over I2C New class ADXL345_I2C Provides access to the ADXL 345 Accelerometer over
the I2C interface
![Page 4: First fare 2010 java-beta-2011](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022082920/554a0eefb4c905825d8b4893/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Previously, accelerometer access was via analog inputs
Example code: ADXL345_I2C accelerometer = new ADXL345_I2C(1, ADXL345_I2C.DataFormat_Range.k4G); double ax = accelerometer.getAcceleration(ADXL345_I2C.Axes.kX);
New Image Processing Capabilities The package edu.wpi.first.wpilibj.image
has new classes:o CurveOptionso EllipseDescriptoro EllipseMatcho RegionOfInteresto ShapeDetectionOptions
The MonoImage class has a new detectEllipses method
Miscellaneous Changes The package com.sun.spot.ota has been
removedo but the com.sun.spot.ota.VxWorks class
was moved to the com.ni.rio package

The package com.sun.cldc.io was addedo it contains only
the ConnectionBaseInterface interface The package com.sun.cldc.jna has two new
classes:o BlockingFunction and TaskExecutor
The package com.sun.squawk has four new classes:
o CallbackManager, CrossIsolateThread, DoBlock, ResourceFile
The package com.sun.squawk.io.j2me.multicast has been renamed
o The new name is com.sun.squawk.io.j2me.multicastoutput
Two interfaces from com.sun.squawk.microedition.io were moved
o ServerSocketConnection, SocketConnection are now in javax.microedition.io
The package com.sun.squawk.pragma has been added
The package com.sun.squawk.security.verifier has been removed
The package con.sun.squawk.util has a new SquawkHashtable
