On the distance measurement between bots

This distance measurement discussion from last year is interesting. I am
also planing some distance measurements among e-puck robots. Would any of
you be kind to offer more on the reflective tape.

I did some fundamental research on the reflective sheetings, they are
amazingly expensive, and charge differently according to the gain (700X ~
3000x), which refers to how much the amplitude of the signal is magnified.
Any insights on it? Thanks in ad.
