Following a Line during the Autonomous Period with Blocks Programming
Since posting this video the author has done some more testing. The REV color sensor is very sensitive to its distance from the mat. Slight increases or decreases in distance from the mat will change the percentage light detected. To get a good range of readings that distinguish the mat from colored tape on the mat, you may need to adjust the sensor up or down. (There is also a newer version of this video.)
