I concur with this completely. I think my final scan scheme will be something like take 32 readings, sort into high 16 and low 16 and get an average for each group and compare the difference in the high/low average... maybe discard the top and bottom two as well. Something to eliminate as many anomolies as possible.

I found that because I’m not using a rotation sensor on my horizontal axis, I have trouble getting the sensor pointed exactly at the cel and sometimes I end up with artificially ‘bright’ numbers because I’m picking up a bit of the frame. If I had some Lego lights I think I’d just put the sensor in passive mode and stick my own light sources on there... :) Of course, I don’t have a free motor port and it would be poor form to run them off a battery box.
