Re: Who used Driver Station for Vision?

On the topic of bandwidth, we would be lucky to get a constant 10-12 Mbps during the past year. At the DC Regional, we had to change the camera resolution and refresh cycle a few times to get the bandwidth usage down even further. I will caveat that I am not on the command and control (programming and sensors) subteam, so I do not know all the intricacies in the process.
So you were sending video from the laptop to the driver's station as well?

Team 11 never sent full speed video, they had indicators and all that was sent was the information to operate those indicators at the driver's station. For the most part the entire robot wasn't using a whole lot more network usage than something you could easily create from the KOP and the sample code. The indicators consume trivial network usage.
