This is in fact used for some industrial robots (welders, etc) on assembly
lines. It also seems a lot like the motion control camera systems pioneered
by ILM for Star Wars.
The real problem is that it is difficult to generalize the behaviors - does the
robot move forward until Button A is pressed, or just for 5 seconds? What does
it do at the end of the recorded behavior? Etc.
It's great for cyclic behaviors, or sporadic actions, but a line-following maze
runner might be very hard to produce with this method.
