Border text an issue?

[BryanStuurman]

I have some apriltags which are being intermittently detected, they have text in the white border (as pictured below) - is this problematic? should the border be clean, and if so for what distance?

Yes. The borders have to be clean white so that the edges can be detected. You could try to reduce the size of the text or use a lighter shade of grey. If in doubt, use the templates or the tag-generation scripts.

Thanks for the fast response! I'll let my team know.
