Alignment Line

Is anyone attempting to use the Alignment Line in the courtyards for automatic shooting alignment? It's listed to be made from Green gaffer's tape, but from the field reveal videos looks pretty hard to detect with just a color sensor. Any thoughts?

Possibly sonar or color detection...not sure what good it really does versus the hassle and possible unreliability of detection

We're planning to use the retro-reflective tape on the high goals for targeting. Green tape on green carpeting under different lighting conditions at different venues sounds iffy.

+1 We are also using the same idea to line up our shots. Once in range, we have a green light on the drivers station for the human player to shoot. Of course that is in the theoretical (coded) stage at this point in time.
