Re: Help with linking OI and RC over Internet....
The OI sends data through the dashboard port even when its not connected to the robot. You could set the OI to output the OI values, and connect your WiFi serial things to the dashboard of the OI and the program port of the RC. You would get all the joystick and switch information through this connection. You could also write software to drive the robot from a computer.
You would still need to write the software to interpret the dashboard data, but that is well documented, and would be relatively easy.
I did not check to see if the 2006 OI will output the values, but while I was typing this I tested a 2005 OI and it worked the way I expected.
The dashboard specs are in the install folder of IFI Dahsboard or aviable from IFI's website.
Hope this helps
