I think it would be great to see a game that had the driver stations covered up so the drivers couldn't see the field and they had to rely on the camera for feedback only. Bomb squad robots and the robots the drive on planets are all driven with camera feedback to the driver. This can also make programming the robot much more intensive giving the programmers a harder time and making the robot more of a robot than an RC car.

Im on board with this, makes the event more interesting, what if the HP's job is to relay something from the feild to the drive team, sort of like a secondary satellites or something, that would really enhance the action on the feild

i think it would be really cool to see something like on a controll system(in the furture). all FRIST has to do is make the live nasa feed be able to zoom in cabilites. it would be neat to have a live feed from one of teh robots.

We might be able to used the vex camera out of the new kit to use out on the field. Maybe on both frc fields and vex fields.
