I don't see autonomy coming to BattleBots anytime soon for many reasons (technical issues, crowd appeal) but I think people might find a use for computer-assisted teleoperation;
e.g. telemetry assistance or a "do-combo-move-now" button.
kinda like the Quake macro someone wrote to jump and spin, fire directly behind you, keep spinning so you land facing the way you started, allowing you to fire behind your back while running away.
