Question on the "can density", which will of course depend on the
playfield size and the # cans on the field..

If the focus on finding cans, or finding the largest cans?  If the
later, I might suggest wrapping the bottom of each can with a strip of
retroreflective tape (but it might be too expensive)...

The Focus is finding the Heavist can, I think part of the challenge will be
finding the cans in general...

I imagined a 3 meter by 3 meter (just for you Iian) Practically 10' x 10'  for
you imperial lovers out there. With maybe 20 - 30 Cans. And Of course the cans
are going to be obsiticials as well..

We will have to think about what to do if a can rolls out of the playing area,
after a robot knocks it down or gives it a push...
