Hi,

Just thought everyone might like to know that the IR is working on the
actual robot. It can receive its own frames quite well - everything
seems to reflect IR. It even receives stuff through the reflections
from flat surfaces that it's sitting on.

Am i wrong in thinking this will cause hell for the Sun tracking system?
Should we have the Sun be a modulated signal?

No, I don't think it will. For sun-tracking, we move into a lower sensitivity
mode.
