however, this is not implemented as of yet, and so probably will never be (in the spirit of tools/laptops down).
We tell it where the balls are with the IR remote, and basically push those positions onto a stack. As the robot makes laps, it pops these set positions off of the stack, and corrects to them using a closed loop driving system.

Trial A Demonstrates its ability to hit balls in other positions.
