Re: Driven Station options?
-In the past, the Driver Station has allowed 4 USB joysticks and the Cypress board. It is compiled, and no user code can run from it directly.
-With the new Kinect beta, there is a separate KinectServer (written in C#) which talks over UDP to the Driver Station (Which bundles it with the driver data packet). While I can't say a ton, you can modify this as much as you want, and could use some of the extra data fields for your own purposes (it has a few extra fields which are fairly easy to use). Assuming you still want to use Kinect, unfortunately you are stuck with C#.
-There are a few TCP/UDP ports which are open to the robot, and the Dashboard can use those to communicate with the robot, but you're on your own with that.
