The detection threshold is the board's real calibration knob: a sensor must
reach this pulse count to register the ball. Connect to tune it live, then
Save to board to persist it to flash. (Disabled until connected.)
Set all DIP switches up on the board to enable visualiser mode, then
Connect and pick the board's serial port. Stream format:
IR,c0..c11,best,strength,angle at 115200 baud.
No board? Click Demo to run a simulated ball β drag anywhere on
the radar to steer it (angle = direction, distance from centre = strength).
Per-sensor sensitivity
Boost sectors where robot structure dims the IR. 100% = unchanged. Applied before detection, so it rebalances the bearing.
Guided capture: click Start capture, then slowly orbit
the ball around the board at a fixed distance so every sensor sees it head-on.
Click Stop and each gain is set so all sensors respond equally; fine-tune
by hand, then Save to board. Sensors that never saw the ball are
left unchanged and flagged. (Disabled until connected.)
