Re: Recognizing the colors of the balls in autonomous mode

Just because something isnt included in the kit doesnt mean you can't use it. Since I have been looking through the rules, I havent found anything about the camera, so I am not sure. Even without the camera, you can use the IR remote, which is basically like just driving the robot. I personally dont understand why they incopporated this unless it is more difficult than I am thinking. As I think about it though it does make more sence, because it can help the new teams go a little bit, but when in the other lane, you might not be able to pick up the IR and it would need to be autonomous. I dont know, I need to do some thinking about this.
