Probably concerns for getting power onthe trailer, and the difficulty of 360 degree illumination kept it out of this year's vision targets. I'm glad they did the green/pink combo on all trailers to ensure fair color tracking between alliance colors. Imagine if the red trailers had only pink targets, and the blue trailers had only green!
They could have gone with red/blue leds on the trailers to do the same thing.

It is unfortunate that people work so hard on the cameras only to find out the lighting is an issue.
