Re: Varied color light trick...
I love the possibilities of multiple light colors... but I do see one small issue:
This year with just the green lights, I did see a number of cameras pick up other green sources besides the goal light. I saw a match on Galileo where a robot ran out of the starting box towards the goal, it's camera turned around, and it shot it's full round in the direction of MOE up in the stands.
If the lights changed to red I could see a team like 173 (the shirts in the stands, and the robot itself) as a potential target, or any of the many teams using blue. The current rules prohibit the use of colors designed to distract the vision system, and it's logical to assume if the color palette is to increase, so must the restrictions on team colors to keep everything in order on the field. It probably won't be a major problem, but it's just a thought based on what I've seen with the green this year.
