Re: Broken cameras...Anyone?

Well, first thing you want to do is create "Plan Bs" (read: threads) in your code to make sure the cRio doesn't crash when the camera goes out on you during a competition. Or, just a try/catch block to contain that code in case it breaks.

Second, you should not need to re-image the cRio unless the camera code is ran continuously in the init section of the robot. It won't hurt, but I don't see how it might help.

Third, any ideas on why the camera is rebooting in the middle of a match? Never had that happen before.
