Hi, we are a very large robotics program/competition. One of our challenges involves following a solid black line on a white background which is printed on a vinyl track. The mBot line follower sensor seems to not be capable of seeing the black on these tracks. We have many teams who like the mBot for this challenge. Can you help us understand why the robot can see the black line printed on paper, but not on a vinyl surface (the vinyl surface is a matte surface, not glossy)

Hi bmontoya,
Could you kindly take a picture for the vinyl surface?
Will the mBot run forward or backward on the vinyl surface when in manual control mode?
