Neural networks were one of the things that got me excited about computer science a long time ago. If you want a really cool project to try with NN's, I highly recommend this one: http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/...ndwritten-Digi
I realize how slow it'd be. That would be a fun project to do, alas, college is starting up again soon and I do not think I'd have the time to do it before.

So, I'm sticking with regression for calculating distance

speaking of which, I just got a simple regression to work that has an r value of >.999 involving the relationship between how high a target in an image and how far away it is. The next step is to incorporate camera tilt data from a gyro on it.
