I am entirely sure that #2 will be completely possible in the future with the possibilities of gps and other advanced sensors combined with the CRio.
#2 would be awesome and I would love to do it. Only problem is, most GPS receivers are not accurate enough for use on an FRC field. Oh and there is also that pesky thing about being indoors. (Don't suggest out door competitions, us northerners might be able to take the cold but I think that the CRio might have problems )

Jake, the beacons were not so much for absolute positioning, they were more for "Are we there yet" positioning. It is also impossible to determine position using two points, you need at least 3.
