Extrapolating Direction From Images

Has anyone gotten direction extrapolation working using the included VIs? We're trying to find a way to determine how far off center the camera is and have the base correct for it. I know that the processing software will vary the distance measured with respect to the angle of the camera, and with that measurement it's definitely possible to have the robot center itself using the ultrasonic sensor as a verification method, but I'm not sure how to determine which direction the robot has to turn in order to correct itself.

Any ideas?
