Re: GRIP Co-processor bandwidth usage
It sounds like op is asking if sending information from their co-processor will take up bandwidth to the same extent sending your video stream to the driver station would. We all know that sending a live camera feed back to the driver station has the possibility to put you over the bandwidth limit. However I believe the main appeal of using the co-processor for vision on the robot itself is that it won't eat up your bandwidth.

The 7mb/s limit is from the radio on the robot to the driverstation. Not local co-processor to radio to local roborio. Please correct me it I'm wrong though.
