Re: PID on Jaguars is Illegal
This year they opened up the CAN bus, added rules for wiring sensors to the Jaguars and updated firmware in Jaguars to shut down if they don’t get a “heartbeat” from the CRio. I cannot understand why the GameDesignCommittee came down with a rule clarification banning PID in Jaguars when the clearly were acting to enable it. Hopefully they will reconsider - distributed processing is an important lesson for our young engineers.
