Re: Possibility of using a Bluetooth camera on FRC 2017 Steamworks robot

And R62 is even more direct:
R62. One (1) OpenMesh Wireless Bridge (P/N: OM5P-AN or OM5P-AC), that has been configured with the appropriate encryption key for your team number at each event, is the only permitted device for communicating to and from the ROBOT during the MATCH.

I concur on the R68 blue box--that's exactly what it says.
