Alright! I can see two encoders; I imagine you coupled it with a gyro, maybe an accelerometer for wheel slip if you wanted to get really fancy (4 Thousand lines!?! Where does it all go!)? Maybe even a nice input system to easily code a coordinate autonomous, perhaps even on the fly?
If you are doing the black box as Tom stated, I'm impressed. I had started to think about it a couple years back, but never had the initiative or skill to code it. And I'm glad I didn't try! Four thousand lines and change? Crazy, but awesome. Don't feel pressured to release that baby, especially not this coming year. You deserve the exclusive right to an insane autonomous if you created it!
