Maybe our team is just "challenged," but we have repeatedly failed to get vision processing to work, whereas adding gyro feedback to a mecanum drive was not a big deal.

We can get vision processing code to work in the shop, but we haven't ever gotten it to work on a field with venue lighting and bandwidth limitations. We've also had communications issues with the camera and program lag with the camera turned on. These are solvable problems, but we have run out of time in the years when we tried to make it work.
