Most definitely yes. During one of our matches on Galileo we had a trim problem on our turret joystick, so in the brief second between when the robot is enabled and when autonomous begins our camera turned enough that MOE sitting in the stands entered the edge of the field of view and became a bigger target than the light. We ended up firing all our balls straight at them.

We're working on a MOE detection algorithm for next year.
