For the second year (http://www.chiefdelphi.com/forums/showthread.php?t=105052&highlight=award+dashboard) in a row, Team 2423 has won the Innovation in Control award at the Boston Regional. The 2013 award was given primarily based on the dashboard control system on our driver station laptop, which is a touchscreen ultrabook running Windows 8.
This dashboard program (and our robot code) is written entirely in python, and in addition to the visual eye candy and status indicators (including an animated robot drawing), it contains accurate image processing code (using OpenCV) that directs our robot to shoot at targets that the operator touches on the screen (the screenshot contains an image taken during a competition match).
Every year, Team 2423 posts all their source code for others to use, and I'll be posting the full source code for this in the near future so you can play with it yourself. Still need to add a writeup and some documentation notes. :)
