Bye the way team 20? we won WPI with you a year ago remember team GUS 228

Haha yes, I remember, it was an awesome regional. I wish we were going back, but we're doing GSR and CT this year.

So from there, you have an image object. I would recommend printing out the height and width of the image, to make sure your camera is hooked up properly. From there, the traditional route is to threshold the image to get a binary image which should ideally contain only the rectangle. From there, WPILib has a rectangle detection function, which should work for basic stuff. From there, you get the height and width, and can do a bunch of trigonometry to figure out how far away it is. I would start by figuring out the thresholding functions; play around with them and see what they do. If you have any questions, please ask!
