LCC Robotics 2024 Repository

This repo contains the code for LCC's robot for Kryptik 2024, a robotics competition hosted by CRC Robotics.

The project is scaffolded using the PlatformIO framework, as it allows for flexible and platform-agnostic projects for embedded applications with minimal configuration.
