Re: Custom Driverstation
A couple things to keep in mind.
At this point it is not legal to use a custom driver station at a FIRST competition.
As you write the driver station software, think through the safety issues. Your code will now be directly responsible for much of what the robot does. If the app crashes and stops communicating, the system watchdog will shutdown the outputs. If your app continues sending commands, the robot will do what it is told -- whatever that is. Test it thoroughly, especially before using it around crowds of people or letting others drive it.
