Wouldn't we have a robot steer the light sail as it got closer?

Genuine question, this is well outside my wheelhouse.

I think that's the right answer, as it got closer the exact parameters for the slingshot could be refined with images of the system taken a few lightdays out with a strong camera. So we just need that robot really.
