Our team had an idea to gear the motors electronically...

We would have a flywheel on the output axle of each motor .
On the outer edge of the flywheel, we would put that special reflective tabe at set degree (15 maybe). Then we would set up the optical sensor to count rotations. We would then make a control loop to compensate for differences in rotation....But since they banned using hte tape on your robot, we can't do it anymore
