Re: Autonomous Impressions

This year's autonomous is a large step up from any previous year's. This is the first year where more than a small handful of teams used non-dead reckoning methods for autonomous, had more robots moving in autonomous than any previous year, and had robots consistently scoring in autonomous. The only things I would want them to change in the focus for next year's autonomous would be to increase the time back to 15 seconds (now that teams have proven they will use the time) and to allow for multiple methods of tracking to targets (similar to how they had both lines to follow and IR beacons to recieve in 2004). They could even have 2 different objectives that would require different tracking methods to get there.
