Re: Vision Tracking from the Dashboard

Using Network Tables or UDP wouldn't have changed the problem.

We used UDP because it was faster than Network Tables and we knew how to do UDP. As for packet loss it wasn't UDP packet loss I was talking about, it was FMS communication packet loss. That is what the log view is showing.

Our UDP could care less if there was any packet loss or not. UDP doesn't factor into the equation. Our UDP packets were tiny anyway (52 bytes IIRC), and only transmitted every 100ms.

The bottom line for us, was the Classmate couldn't cut it with what we asked of it. It's all about the processing power or lack thereof of the Classmate, nothing else.
