Very true. In at least the past couple years, you've been able to have all sorts of sensors and such that could be connected to separate processors, so you could work on designing a custom "black box" in the off season. Include a few gyros, accelerometers, encoders even some ultrasonic proximity sensors, and it could give you a very good idea of where you were on the field.
Then, in the season, there's almost no work except physically rebuilding it. You could have it just send back the position and rotation of the robot to the robot controller.
I told people that I was a summit for world leaders for our regional. We had two that are current world leaders and over 1000 that will be ones in 2029. - Foster [more]
