Re: How many Robots at the nationals had an operational Camera Track Autonomous?

I wish that were exactly the case. Unlike a using a PID+gyro, our system returns to going straight when there is no target in sight (or continues turning at the same rate, depending on how we want it) whereas with a gyro you can remember an angle and PID to the angle, effectively turning to the last known location.
Otherwise, they work in essentially the same manner
