What Does Everybody Think About Using Sensors In The Competition For This Year?

Following the line isn't exactly the best thing to do when you think about it. The robot will move slower because it has to constantly follow the path, which is what you don't want.

I agree. While a line tracker is a good thought, I think it would be faster to go dead reckoning around and up the ramp. And besides, all the line is good for is getting you on to the ramp anyways! beyond that, if all you have is a line tracker, your a dead reckoning bot!
