Re: Vision Tracking the Hot Goal LEDs

My overall experience with the vision system is that looking for individual colors can be extremely finicky, depending on the lighting on the field and whether your robot feels helpful on a given day. Also, it can be hard to correctly analyze an area of color that does not have a well-defined shape.

Bright green LED's tend to be picked up well under most lighting circumstances, though - our team has successfully used a bright green ring light the last couple years. I would recommend using the dynamic vision targets with a bright light of some sort.
