Re: Is vision processing on the crio plausible?

Use the information computed from a frame to determine how much to turn. Use a gyro to turn that much. Optionally, when you've finished the turn, repeat the process. Once you verify that you're facing the right direction, use encoders to move to the proper distance from the goal.

PID is often a good tool for controlling robot direction based on a gyro, and for controlling robot drive based on encoders.
