Does your system control just camera/dumper position, or can it also use the drive system to hold a station relative to a target? We're working on a system that does the latter.

In the autonomous mode we gonna use the camera to position and guide our bot to the opponent bots, but for this we'll need to change the algorithm, because we are using just three turnable wheels. This way, the wheels's angle will be provided by the cam, but only in autonomous period.
