Vision Tracking Questions (LabView)

[April McShorty]

Hello, I am attempting to have our robot track the tape on the yellow tote in autonomous. We've built a sub vi with vision tracking in it, and theoretically it works (we've done some tests with the cameras and it finds and tracks the tape), but I have no idea how to integrate this into our code to make it do stuff, such as drive to the tote. Any advice or examples or anything that might help?
Thanks in advanced!

The left-right position of the vision target in the camera image tells you how much you need to turn the robot to aim at the tote.

The up-down position of the vision target in the camera image tells you the vertical angle from the camera to the tote. If your camera is at a known height, a simple bit of trigonometry tells you how far you need to drive forward to reach the tote.
