Re: Kinect usage at competitions

It's a novel implement and does have some legitimate uses (see HOTs recent technical design whitepaper) but using it for main control in Hybrid mode is hardly better/more reproducible than a sheer open-loop implementation in all but the simplest of autonomous routines.

We might play with it a bit offseason in case it is legal for use again, perhaps to use it in a way similar to HOT.
