Re: Retroreflective Tape
For detecting and interpreting the retroreflective targets, the only sensor I would suggest is a camera.
The wpilib.screenstepslive.com web site has a section on the 2014 FRC Control System. One of the links is all about Vision Processing. The provided example software supports several Axis cameras: 206, M1011, and M1013.

Re: Retroreflective Tape
The key to using a camera for this is knowing that the retroreflective tape will reflect light back to its source. Meaning you should put a light source on your robot near the camera.
You'll see that the tape reflects BIG, making it easy to track. The light doesn't need to be that bright.
