Re: Networking on the Robot
NetworkTables is really good for key-value types of transfers of data, and it's very simple to use from robot code, and let's you ignore network-related complexity. You can expect up to 100ms of latency in Java/C++ as the sender (not sure about LabVIEW), and up to 50ms of latency when using python as the sender. But, for most control systems in FRC, this is good enough.
