Things that need to happen for this to work (I think):
- FMS has to allow for a 1080p stream at 90 fps (minimum..to not have motion sickness)
- There has to be absolutely no lag between the camera and the headset (that means that the camera has to have no long from just the movement of the and also the movement of the headset)
- You have to be capable of mounting a camera on the bot (especially in this game) that will be unobstructed to view in all angles
- Have the money for the cost of the camera, headset (I have a Vive... and let me tell you.. it is not cheap), and laptop that would be powerful enough to run it
- I doubt the RoboRio is capable of handling this sort of work... might be wrong)...
- Safety concerns with a Driver moving rather erratically especially since they wont be able to see their own surroundings, and are also tethered to a cable that is connected to the driver station... (I personally have tipped my desktop twice while dodging bullets in my Vive)
And probably a lot more, but even if all of this happened, I would not want to use this. This year our bot had a camera, and we also had a pole camera. I almost never looked at my bot's camera, and I only looked at my pole camera maybe 5 times a regional, when my view was obstructed by a drawbridge. Cameras simply don't give me the whole picture that is crucial to being a good driver. Being able to know where the next ball is on the other side of the field, know which bots are coming to play defense on you, and how you can avoid them, or even looking at the opponent alliances human player station, so you can know when their human player is about to roll a ball, and you can intercept it.... all things that a camera could not have shown.
