This UDP problem is yet another little surprise that we didn't anticipate.

Thanks for your help,

Mike
Correct on all counts. The USB camera is actually a kinect. It's worked fairly well overall (we can pinpoint our field position down to a 1/3 foot with it), though the kinect itself has provided our own series of surprises.

We'll be at St Louis as well, so if you need any help with this, feel free to drop by 639's pit
