What This Unit Covers

Use the hardwareMap registry to retrieve configured devices with the correct Java class and exact robot configuration name.

Map motors and sensors consistently while diagnosing name mismatches and configuration overlay problems quickly.

Organize shared mechanism code into reusable classes that stay synchronized across multiple OpModes.
