By and large I have seen very few impressive autonomous modes on any robot. Our team's robot is definetly included within that description. Of the few that succesfully pick up more balls and place them into the high goal (so they get more than the 2 started with), the impressive aspect is the engineering that allows for this to occur by simply moving forward and backwards. That is, there is no apparent sophisticated programming or a large use of sensors. I believe I have seen only one team that tracked the white line, and that may have been dead reckoning.

What have you seen in autonomous mode and why do you believe it to be overall to be relatively simplistic?
