*chokes* Erm. A bold statement there. But I'd venture to guess that procedural programming makes up a majority of the actual robotics work out in the Real World. (ie. not NASA, academic research, or the military) See
this post for an idea of things. OO is fine and dandy, and useful for doing highly complicated and difficult tasks like machine vision and such.... But there's a distinct difference between complication and utility.
