Re: Successful Computer Vision

SuperBrightLEDs is the marketing name for the company, not necessarily a truthful measurement of their brightness. Since they were donated to FIRST, I would assume they are legal on a robot.

As for IR, I suspect most light sources will show up bright in IR, especially tungsten and incandescent. And of course one of the reasons it is hard to know is that you can't see IR, so debugging it may be more frustrating than light you can see. But of course, I don't want to discourage you from the experimentation. Good luck with it.
