Hmm Okay, i think I am getting a little better grasp on it..

What is the advantage? More precise movement?

Does 254 just run it in Auto..

Still trying to grasp it completely.

Take 2 minutes and watch the video starting at 14:50

It answers your question.

Camera Control
 

Camera Control:

1) Expand Camera Class to more than one Camera
2) Select which camera is sent to the Driver Station, or multiple streams to the Driver Station
3) Class (driver) for each camera - Microsoft HD-3000 can't be easily configured.
4) Ways to easily send a camera stream to another device on the Robot (Raspberry Pi, Intel compute stick, etc.). An IP device (raspberry pi) can probably grab a camera image directly from an IP camera. A USB Compute Stick (or usb camera) may need the RoboRio to send the image.

Ahh Okay, starting to grasp it a bit, basically for really accurate movement. It seems like you would only really use it in auto though, unless I am wrong.


My team this year struggled drive team wise, it was kinda unfortunate because we never got to see the robots ceiling competing wise...a lot of indecisive driving kinda held the team back. Sometimes I think about something to aid them with guiding the robot

You can use the super smooth motion of motion profiling + PID in more areas than just your drivetrain. Good implementation of motion profiling is what makes 971* or 254's** arms and such so... organic in their movement.

*As well as some other software magic.
