Re: Weird Socket Problem with Arduino & cRio

You can see our implementation here.

Good Luck
Hi Radical,

Yeah, I think we've stumbled across the same issue here. Thanks for the code reference. It looks like you're using a Beagleboard with USB camera and OpenCV? How's that working out for you? We had considered that approach as well, but ran out of time to make it happen. With St Louis next week, we're just working to make sure that we're as stable as possible. This UDP problem is yet another little surprise that we didn't anticipate.

Thanks for your help,

Mike
