If the robot is far enough away from the camera it will be in the range of the camera no matter what direction you are pointing it at because the robot will be in the field of view. I wold have to do the math to figure out if it would be possible but it is not exactly something that can be hand waved as absurd.

Re: Bad news for Pink, MOE, ThunderChickens ... ?

I'm not a programmer, but couldn't you also include in the code to look for the colored bumpers directly below the pink and green? like if pink's on top, have the robot make sure that the bumpers are red before it shoots.

This is a little worse than in the past for vision systems but isn't too surprising to me. In 2006 our team provided glowsticks to all competitors at the AZ regional; anyone on a drive team wearing a green glowstick was asked to remove it for the match to avoid any confusion between it and the lighted targets.
