Re: Workaround for the Kinect?
Having been on a team that actually used a camera on the robot as a decoration prior to the cRio switchover, I can attest to this: they are very stingy about what is considered a decoration, and it appears they have a strict definition of decoration that revolves around non-functionality. We were allowed to put a camera on as decoration and record what went on in the robot (we actually stored to onboard memory for retrieval after the match), but every single judge wanted to make absolutely sure we weren't using it for real-time driving, because then it wouldn't be a decoration anymore (this was before video was allowed back at the driver station - that has since changed, but their definition of decoration has not). Since that is what you'd be doing with the wireless system, it couldn't be logically defined as a decoration, and so wouldn't fall under the jurisdiction of [R67], meaning [R55] all the way. Sorry - no wireless USB for you.
