On the contrary, if you just send the target location, you will actually be more re-usable. We used our 2013 vision code for targeting in 2014 with minimal modification to the code on the pi; I suspect that we could have simply transferred the pi from one robot to the other. (And yes, the team-specific code was and still is in a publically accessible github repository.)
