In order to provide a reliable and non intrusive experience to the user, the beacons used for the ransac approximation were switched from a red laser diode based design, to IR LED's at 940nm. 

Additionally an IR filter was added to the front facing camera. Changing the front camera output from a typical camera output, to a tool to be used for localization and mapping.
