Re: Is there a place this year for robots that cant hurdle?

During autonomous, I have to agree. How sophisticated are robots to be able to avoid traffic or once they hit something, can they regroup and still move forward.
The part I dont get is why try and go around the track. We didnt try to create an autonomous to move around the entire track because we DONT want to risk hitting bots and either tip over or break something.
I look at some teams that have fast hurdling bots planning to do autonomous around the track and I think to myself, what a risk!
