Very impressive indeed...I especially liked the software for recording autonomous modes. Earlier in the season I made a similar program that captured joystick input so autonomous mode would duplicate pre-recorded driver movements, but ultimately we stuck with a simple (and reliable) gyro-based program.

BUT:

I have to ask this...did the team's students ever actually have a part in any of this? No offense is meant, I'm just curious...this is the sort of system that NASA would be proud of.
