610 used RoboRealm with Kinect during 2013 season. In summary:
1. RoboRealm ran on netbook; cRIO/RoboRio talked to RoboRealm using http get. RoboRealm scripts handled target detection (aiming and distance.)
2. Depth sensing worked well indoors and the laser worked well with reflective tap for auto-aiming.
3. But we had trouble with infra-red over exposure when robot was running in environments with sunlight.
Eventually, we removed the Kinect+RoboRealm implementation.
