We decided a couple of days in and it took until the LA regional (week 3 I believe) to have the code fully functional. One reason we tried this is that we've done vision systems many times in the past so we wanted to try something different.

It turned out to be a fantastic sensor and worked better than we could have hoped. It really feels like a generational leap in the amount and quality of information available to the robot and we only barely scratched the surface.
