Your talking to someone who is on his way to becoming an engineer. The reality is that what you are talking about can't happen easily. The reason why I brought this up is because I see this issue we are talking about as one of areas where you really can't condense it down to something simplistic. I would make a guess that most programmers for FIRST robots are actually employing two distinctly different fields that at one point had nothing to do with each other until computers became cost effective. Those being programing and control theory.
