The robot can determine the number of targets it is tracking based on the size of that "box."

Basically, you can tell how many targets there is by the number of pixels your camera counts, distance also affects this factor.

True, but distance would affect height and width of the box, whereas I believe two targets only primarily affects the width, so I think you could probably compensate for it fairly effectively with some basic math.
