Landing on Roombas #15

We've been talking about this from day 1 of the project, now we need someone to make sense of it all into an algorithm.

We need someone to write out our strategy for finding the best route to obtain the most amount of points.

Collaboration with other members is also highly encouraged.(Especially #16)

This task specifically focuses on what we do when we are approaching a Roomba that needs to be turned around. How we approach it, the touchdown, and also resuming standard sentry search mode after successfully making sure the robot has been hit and is going in the right direction.

You have a camera in the center of the vehicle, so a simple algorithm would be to center the roomba in your field of view, then start descending while keeping it centered until you detect a landing (Hopefully you have some sort of landing sensor).
