2006 was the 2nd year for vision. 2005 had the green vision tetrahedrons in autonomous, but it was an impossible task. The green color was highly dependent on the field lightning conditions which were arena specific. Small changes in shadows would completely change vision.

In 2006, the high goal featured the lit target, which was excellent because the color was constant by angle, and surrounding lighting.

The CMU camera wasn't very advanced either, and while the PIC based control system was darn near bullet proof, the setup (and possibly the rules?) didn't allow much if any co-processing capabilities.
