Greetings!

Coach of a rookie team here. I am wondering if other teams use the sensors available in the kit?

I see there are plenty of opportunities, like ultrasonic sensor to guide the robot to a certain location away from something else, color sensor for following the black lines on the mat, gyro sensor for accurate turns and straight line driving.............BUT........do FLL teams actually use them? Are they just too difficult to use and/or understand?

I wonder if I should spend the time teaching the kids about these "advanced options", or should I just let them figure it out themselves or let them choose whether or not to use these fancy things.
