The robot still ended up driving into a vision tetra and quite nearly pushing it under a side goal. I ran two other matches with the camera, just to see how well it could follow tetras. Once, it drove through a side goal and into the opposing alliance's vision tetra. The other time, it pretty much missed. Vision is not even close to the attainable task I thought it to be six weeks ago.
