"We need to make our system work well enough so that it can find a dot, then test to see if it's reflective, then see if it's retroreflective, and then test to see if it's the right shape."

    Why blind the camera? I think that is asking for too much complication. Just keep it at a device that pinpoints the camera and have security bust them when the show is over [noparse];)[/noparse] .

    Three of them...
    Due to the fact that the recording has already been made.
    If the perp believes he's been had, he can simply do a handoff to a second or third party before the bust.
    Or, more easily, a cam but instead of a recording head, an xmitter to something close by.
    The object of security in this case is to stop it before it happens.
