Registering input devices with DriverStation

Hello all!

My team is looking into creating custom control solutions. We were looking into the Wii Remote but then realized that Bluetooth communication is not allowed by first. If we decided to take up the task of creating a control solution that utilized an Arduino and an accelerometer, would it be necessary for us to register the device with DriverStation or could we just send raw data from the device to the robot through some kind of server running on the driver station computer?

Thanks!
