My question is that with a defender in your way blocking your camera occasionally would you still be able to track the known location of the goal and fire? It seemed as though you could fire over most defenders even if they were 4ft 6in if you could track the location while they were blocking you and fire anyway. How did you combat camera obstruction?

We didn't.

But we have plans for it now. We're going to be adding latency and IMU compensation to the code to better track the targets. We will be working closely with Kauai Labs to make it happen before too long.
