I'll leave it to one of our programmers to reply to specifics on the auton program, but we do use the camera to aquire the target (we never know which one it will like best) along with some dead reckoning logic and arm control including gear tooth sensors. We target the top row, as it moves the least. We were very successful in practice rounds (6 of 8), not so much in the "real matches". We think the floor condition may have affected our performance, but we were very close when we missed, ie tubes barely bouncing off the rack. We'll see what happens in Buckeye...

Thanks to all for the nice comments!
