Description

Now that we have Field2d, we should talk about how teams can visualize their odometry. They can use this to push their robot around when disabled and verify that everything looks correct.

Once 2021.3.1 is out, we should also talk about plotting the desired trajectory.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Explore the Field2d class in WPILib documentation and understand how to visualize odometry and trajectories. Then add a section to the trajectory tutorial with step by step debugging instructions.
