And if the camera is searching and can not find the light it will use those values and go into destroy mode killing everything around it. How can I use the tracking_state to stop the robot from moving if it doesn't see the light or if it has lost the light? I honestly do not understand the many states of this camera.
If I understand your problem correctly, you might consider mounting the camera at the rear of the 'bot.
