Yes we are. We're using Jags for all of the motors on the bot.

We have a fixed hood, therefore the angle is constant. In terms of vision control, our programmers are still working on perfecting that... Right now, we have on our dashboard a line the the "manipulator" manually aligns with one side of the reflective tape to compensate for the offset nature of the camera.
