Re: Processed Image > Robot Movement Help Needed

Alright, I've flattened the distance information to a string and did some poking around with SD/NT and I'm getting pretty confused. I've got it writing a string array to a SmartDashboard table which, like the tutorial shows, calls it "Distances". I was seeing some Network Tables .vis that were calling for the cRIO IP address to start communicating information but I know absolutely nothing about it and I don't know how SD and NT relate to each other, if at all. Though I've got a hold on reading it on the robot once the information is received (as far as I know, I haven't done it before), what's the next step for establishing a TCP or UDP connection in the Dashboard the Robot? I feel like it's right there in the Network Tables palette but I can't figure it out.

EDIT: I apologize if my battery of questions are annoying, I've spent 4 years looking into vision and it's a miracle the dashboard can see shapes as of Tuesday and I'm excited but know nothing more about the subject.
