# Quail

Bird-brained swerve drive utility.

Looking to contribute to or use Quail? You may find value in joining the Discord server: https://discord.gg/ABznnnBB

To use Quail, you need a few things. The first is swerve modules. More than one. I don't care where your swerve modules are. They could be 52 miles apart (i.e. [this](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ui-ehJlGM1Q)) and in the shape of a pentagon and Quail would still work.

The second thing you need is a little knowledge of Java. You should be able to:

 - use a PID controller

 - use subclasses

 - read an encoder

 - make your motors spin (to an angle if using [coaxial swerve](https://www.chiefdelphi.com/t/coaxial-vs-non-coaxial-swerve/158629/4))

If you want to get started quickly, there are docs [here](https://astr0clad.github.io/quail_docs/)

A javadoc can be found [here](https://mineinjava.github.io/quail/javadoc/)

I wish I knew Kotlin so I could make it purple. 💜

Currently, Quail is stable. Not quite sure about the documentation--it seems to be a bit tempermental.

Quail is designed for use and tested in FRC and FTC, but it should work in any java program.

### Features:

**Working:**

- Swerve reverse kinematics (robot can drive)

- Swerve odometry (robot can know where it is)

    - Includes heading odometry (can run field oriented without gyroscope and/or provide corrections to gyroscope via Kálmán filter)

- 2-deadwheel odometry (robot can know where it is (requires additional hardware & gyro))

- Autonomous navigation and pathing

- Kálmán filter for use with vision

**Not quite working**

- Path sequences
