That is indeed a perfectly viable way to go about it. The cRio can be set to not connect to the camera at all, saving CPU cycles over there, with the dashboard connecting to the camera directly, the camera plugged into your wifi router on your robot. Then the dashboard can communicate the data it derives over to the cRio
