I was wondering because wearables are allowed for the drivers, is it possible to create a gesture glove so that the driver can use finder movements and gestures to control the robot's functions? If taught properly to the driver, using simple motions to control the robot can be easier, less stressful and more efficient because the driver can command the robot without paying attention to the driver station   |
This might need a rules clarification, but you could possibly use something like the Leap Motion to get full gesture interface with the control station. There is even a LabView library for it already:

I hope my team can tinker with something like this during the next off season too. You'll likely need a fairly beafy laptop to run it however, and the development effort won't be insignificant.
