Re: Sensors that can detect reflective tape from a distance?
I'll apologize in advance for not being up-to-date with the latest software revisions, but in the past my students had good success using the cRio and Axis camera to track a vision target.

The target was a 3' diameter black and white "bullseye" and the machine could follow a person holding the target as they walked around the room.

Maybe a software revision will help? Sorry I can't be more specific to this year's game, or your specific issue, but I do think the camera is probably worth investing some time in.
