Re: Target indication on dashboard

That dashboard with the overlays was probably the default one written in LV.

The Rectangular Target Processing example has some annotation code you can place into your dashboard. It is in the RT code, but turned off, and it defaults to being on for the My Computer version of the code.

It takes in the bounding box, scores, and other values, but you can easily strip out numbers and other code if you wish.

The key will be getting the data needed for the overlay from the robot back to the dashboard. The WPI libraries contain tools for this. And you will then need to extract the data in the dashboard and hook it to the overlay functions. If you look at the dashboard code from a couple years ago, this was done the same way, just in the default code.
