Re: Has anyone successfully used RoboRealm?

We tried to use it in 2014 for hot goal detection; it worked great in the lab.

We had horrible trouble at our first competition with it; it seemed that there were issues with getting the video stream from the robot to the RoboRealm on the driver station. We tweaked everything we could find to try to make it work (including the usual tweaks to frame rate and image size), but it was just not reliable for us.

We walked away with what we learned and implemented the same image processing in Java on the roboRIO.
