Yeah, I had a feeling they would be. Depending on the results we get when we test it, we may not use distancing. Our code, fortunately, doesn't depend on it.

The camera method works by knowing the real-world size of the target... distance computation.[/quote]

I've noticed that the tracking software slips up a lot in our lighting conditions, perhaps because the setting in the Begin.vi is the default (fluorescent lighting, I think? I don't have it in front of me) and the default is probably designed for competition circumstances. Again, I'll have to test to get results.
