Re: creating your own HUD YAAAAY!!!

I don't think these 2005 Q&As are unclear:

Q: Can we use cameras other than the CMUCam2 (such as a USB webcam) on the robot along with one or two CMUCam2s?

A: Yes if the part meets the 2005 Part Use Flowchart and you do not provide live feedback to your drivers.

Q: Are we able to have a mounted camera on the robot providing live feedback from the arena floor?

A: Cameras are allowed with FIRST's permission but the video output cannot be transmitted to your drivers for control purposes during any match.

Q: We need to clear the use of a secure 2.4Ghz 802.11b based camera on our robot for giving drivers a 1st person view along with the possibility of transmitting to the "jumbotron" in the competition for the crowd's benefit, is either idea ok?

A: Permission should be requested onsite from the Innovation First representative. Live feedback to the driver station is NOT allowed. With permission, we have allowed live video to be shown via the large screen for short periods of time.
