Has anyone ever used a Computer Mouse to locate themselves on the field

I know team 972 tried this before they merged with our team in 2008. IIRC, they used just a mechanical mouse, where they had the ball running against the ground. I don't think they had all too much success, but it looked fairly promising. I think with laser mice, you will run into a similar problem of having to have it very close to the ground. This could have been a problem for the last two years (bumps + lip by goal for Breakaway, and lip by poles for Logomotion).
