Keep the camera - maybe in a few more years we will be able to actually use it. We are getting closer.

Thats a really good idea. Have scoring stands that have three doors on them. A release allows 1 object to be randomly placed between the three openings at a time. If you have an object detector, then you have ~ 100% chance of finding the object. However, if you don't, you may still obtain objects, but you have ~ a 30% chance of getting one.
I still thinks this puts a damper on the sheer volume of scoring we got to see this year though. That element of the game gave both drivers and spectators a treat, and I would love to see the next game include it as well.
