We actually decreased the value of SEARCH_DELAY_DEFAULT to 3, and it seems to work better, but only when there isn't any fluorescent lighting around. Unfortunately, all competitions will have fluorescent lighting. If you don't have to calibrate the camera for camera_s, how can you make the camera so it doesn't see the white lights?
