Great looking bot, by the way. Good job!

WOW! I'm Impressed. We decided that using the camera to adjust our gun horizontally and vertically, would be too slow and prone to failure. These LED "crosshairs" will give our drivers a positive lock on when they can fire based on feedback from the camera.
