Thanks! I will be sure to check this out.

From my understanding, UDP has no packet delivery confirmation unless you implement it yourself, I haven't had a chance to look at this project yet, but would that be an issue for robot applications, have you tested this on a robot application.

For custom driver station outputs, I could see this being an option, but what about for sending processed image data back to the robo-RIO?
