assuming that he could figure out how to do it, electrically, I think it would be allowed as part of a dashboard system, as long as he is using the FIRST control system to send the data. The reason that other wireless camera systems are not allowed is that they are not using the FIRST control system to send data.

The USB obstical is easy, you just have a USB to serial chip (with buffer) on your custom circuit board, and interface with the programming port.

The hard part is how slow the stamp is, and how little data you can actually send back using FIRST's control system. I don't think it would be possible, because of those restrictions.
