Right now we are trying to think through how using a robot-centric camera to aid the driver in blind areas of the field would mesh with a field-centric driver input. Whatever we decide our drivers are eager to log the hours needed to master the controls. It's been years (2008, 2010) since we've done an omni-directional drive-train, and this thing is just fun to drive.

AR doesn't mean "assault rifle". AR stands for armalite
