Re: Autonomy...
Just imagine the havoc of several 130 lb robots with unstable autonomouse controllers careening around a 44'x22' playing field. Yee-Hah!
On a side note, I only discovered recently that the RC is active while in disable mode. It occurs that an autonomous program that just sends the robot forward when the motors are enabled could gain 1-2 seconds before a driver could react. Until last year, I don't think every second counted.
One autonomous task that might be interesting that could be accomplished in a reasonable time would be to follow a line. This is one place where the retroreflective tape and optical sensors could actual work in a competition setting.
