Re: team colors and misguided cameras

A good safeguard would be to compute where you think the vision target is relative to your robot (since you know the height of the target, and can measure the pitch angle/y position in the frame of the camera). If your robot thinks that the vision target is more than 50 feet away, it's probably a safe bet that you are looking at something that is not the vision target.
