Why even Go with the kinect?

[Nerfighter1629]

Instead of viewing it as a control method, we view it as a start/stop mechanism. Last year in autonomous, we had many problems with field calibration that lead to a couple big penalties from putting an ubertube in an opposing feeding lane. The way I look at it, the Kinect is a way to avoid that. You can program a simple command to realign the robot a tad to save the hybrid mode

To be honest, incorporating the kinect into our program will probably only happen in two ways:
1. Attach it to the robot to do some kind of vision tracking.
2. Use it to see an epic pose made by our human player so it starts the program.

I don't think we're going to bank on using the kinect and i really don't tink we're going to be using more than one motion if we go with the kinect.
