If you have some sort of memory/buffer overrun or bad pointer in C++ that can cause that type of behavior.

We were having similar problems with our radio/cRIO rebooting. We aren't exactly sure what happened, but usually right after auto or half way through teleop, we would loose comms for 15 or so seconds. The radio power light would go red, and then turn back blue. Upon looking at the driver station log, just before loosing comms, there were a bunch of errors relating to the camera. Simply unplugging the camera ethernet camera resolved the issue. Somehow we must have a memory leak in our vision code causing the cRIO to reboot. but its weird that the radio would reboot as well, as it would not have lost power.
