[Undertones]

If you used an app, the iPod would have to be wired to the computer and likely in airplane mode, and even then I'm not sure you'd be allowed to use it. I know AndyMark sells an alternate control system compatible with most smartphones (http://www.andymark.com/product-p/am-0994.htm), you also have to use the FRC legal control system. There is likely a way to do it legally, I think I remember seeing a video of an FRC team controlling there robot with an iPhone and FRC legal control system.
