In 2003 it certainly was handy (when showing the right part of the field) for manoeuvring a 14"-tall robot among 18"-tall boxes, behind a 2'-tall ramp, over 40' away. I used it on a couple of occasions to accurately drive the robot in areas which would otherwise have been invisible.
Granted, this year, your robot will be a little easier to see.
