Description

The turret auto-targets with the limelight, uses a relatively accurate estimation of the distance to the target using the limelight data (#2), and uses a lookup table with flywheel velocity and cowl goals to make shots. Most likely we'll have a relatively simple cowl tuning and a more involved flywheel tuning as a basic start.

Research direction

Start by reviewing issue #2 for the Limelight distance-estimation work, then trace how that data feeds the turret's lookup table for flywheel velocity and cowl goals. Done would require implementing and tuning the shooting behavior, including the initial cowl tuning and the more involved flywheel tuning described here.
