Re: Team 4095 Presents: iPhone Driver Station!

Feature request!

Could you make a configuration using the iphone accelerometer such that the X-magnitude of the accelerometer maps to Joystick 1's X-axis, and the Y-magnitude maps to Joystick 1's Y axis?
That way you could drive the robot based on the phone's orientation.

I realize this can be dangerous, so I'd think it should require holding down a button on the screen to enable, otherwise disable (if the phone was dropped, etc).
