Re: [MCC] Minimum Competitive Concept 2012

I have a question for all of you "low goal dump in auto" guys. Which is simpler to build & program for autonomous: a robot that sits in place and launches 2 balls at the basket via a single control loop, or a robot that moves towards the basket (presumably in a straight line ... oh wait) and then dumps?

Now the same question, without knowing about the ball inconsistencies?

Now the same question, with a team who will do what it takes to tweak, hone-in, and otherwise calibrate to mitigate the ball inconsistencies?
