Camera Tracking

In 2010 it could find the target and turn our robot (with the gyro) to shoot, but could not to do fast enough that a bump wouldn't screw the whole thing up -- and it caused all kinds of watchdog errors in the process.

Has anyone else had any problems like this? Is there a way to fix it? We're thinking of using tracking in 2012 if it's applicable, which it most likely will be.
