Well, my team has shown that they wanted to go with the IR sensor controller, maybe using a TV/VCR remote. But I am in charge of the programming, and I was wondering...

Would something like this (Using ROBOTC) be usable?

task Autonomous()  { // Note: Just pseudocode, but whatever
while (bIfiAutonomousMode) /* Just in case... */
{
   switch(GetIRInputState()) /* Get the state of the IR sensor, in a different subroutine */
   {
      case Button1:
         Action1; // Something like "Move forward, stop"...
      case Button2:
         Action2; // Maybe "Turn Left"
      case Button3:
         Action3; // Maybe "Turn Right"
      case Button4:
         Action4; /* Something along the lines of: "Grab ball off overpass, however possible" */
      default:
         TakeNoAction; // Just "Stop Motors" or something
   }
   BetweenActions; // Something like "Stop Motors, Wait XX MS"
}
EndingAction; /* Play a sound or something. Reset motors for Human Control. Etc. */
}

Any comments?
