Re: Weird camera problem

We are not using Easy C. The camera is mostly working fine, it's just the lowest search level. I'm starting to wonder if it will make a difference, since the light is 9 feet in the air, not directly in front of the robot (not to mention our camera will most likely be a couple feet above the ground) but we would still like to fix this problem. It still locks on correctly (though we're trying it on last year's robot and the robot is so beaten up, it won't drive straight towards it, haha). I'll try commenting out that line ASAP, though your problem sounds a bit different (it's not picking up any other lights, as far as we can tell). Hey, a little trial and error never hurt anyone... except when someone on our team decided to play chicken with the robot and hold the light directly in front of it, nearly getting run over.
