Using Sensors to detect Auto/Align Line

Hi All,

We are a rookie FRC team from Australia. We attempted to search for the answer to this question, but were not successful! (Apologies if we missed something)

We would like to detect crossing the Auto-Line or Alignment-Line during the Autonomous period. We are currently planning to purchase sensors that detect reflected IR light - the gaffer taper being different to the carpet.

Can anyone confirm that we are on the right track? Are there any better approaches?

Thanks for the help,

Regards,
Team 5985
