How I work

The goal is repeatable motion on the real robot — not one lucky run.

Plan

Build paths around scoring positions, field obstacles, timing, and robot orientation.

Tune

Adjust localization, movement constants, and path behavior until commands match the physical chassis.

Observe

Use pose, heading, path state, and timing data to understand why a run succeeded or failed.

Repeat

The target is repeatability: the same autonomous behavior run after run, not one lucky demo.
