Re: ANNOUNCING: navX MXP Robotics Navigation Sensor
KauaiLabs has just released navX-MXP and navX-Micro Firmware version 2.3.257, which increases the sensor update rate to a blazing fast 100Hz. While hundreds of teams worldwide are very successful with using the navX-MXP at lower frame rates, the new 100Hz framerate support enables even faster response for those teams needing to squeeze as much performance out of their robot as possible.

Please note that in order to use this higher framerate, you'll need to both update your device firmware and also update to the latest RoboRIO libraries in order to achieve the highest possible performance. Both are installed onto your development PC using the latest setup program, available on the navX-MXP software page; after installing the setup program in the downloaded .zip file, then follow the firmware upgrade instructions, then modify your robot application to specify the 100Hz update rate, recompile your robot application.

KauaiLabs will be at FIRST World Championships this week and would be happy to answer any questions on this new feature - please feel free to instant message me if you're interested in meeting with us this week at World Championships.
