Why not follow the bumpers based on their alliance colors and numbers?
Then again, as you mentioned, there is a slight chance of bumpers falling off...

We have a sub group working on implementing the idea of tracking robots on the field based on their bumpers, and from that gather data (how fast, etc) and put it onto an onboard database. With the collected data, we'd be able to either send it to our scouting database(after the match), or somehow have the robot use it to make decisions on whether to avoid/confront opposing forces in future matches... I know I didn't elaborate much at all on the implementation, mostly because we've just started gathering up ideas on doing so. We'll definitely be using a second onboard processor like a Raspberry Pi running Open CV for probably one camera(which is still up in the air on what to use). So yeah, probably won't have it fully operational for this season but probably next season, unless anyone would like to collaborate
