And so does that mean:
A) there aren't 15 seconds worth of things to do in autonomous mode - absolutely everything that COULD be done by the robots IS being done; all the additional time and sensors and programming in the world won't make any difference because there is nothing left to do; or
B) the robots that stop autonomous operations after 10 seconds aren't programmed to take full advantage of the resources (time) available to them; as teams get used to programming their robots for autonomous operations they will discover things like error recovery routines, subsumption architectures, execution monitoring, contingency planning, fault recovery trees, etc. etc. etc. and start to make use of them to squeeze every possible operation out of every available second.
Just a thought.
