It sounds like your team is ripe for a brainstorming session. If you 
create some time and framing for an open-the-minds discussion of 
possible solutions, they may come up with some clever approaches.

Their discussion may lead them to coming up with better approaches to 
steering in order to avoid the obstacles, or attachments that allow 
the touch sensor to "feel" a wider range of objects, driving routes 
that avoid the trickest obstacles, or something else entirely.

Good luck!
