If you use a dim colored light the retro reflective properties of the tape will allow you to get a nice HSV range you can use in your programs.

Thats all we had to test with, we are looking at 1000 lum focused, we are not going to use a computer vision tracking, its for our driver. When he sees the light on the reflective tape he can shot. This will give us an arc in front of the goals
