Re: New Robot Control System!
I am.... skeptical of this. I just priced out a very basic cRIO system that would barely provide similar outputs to the current RC. It was ~$2500. This is sans some sort of radio system and operator interface, plus you'd still need speed controllers and relays for the motors. The current system from IFI costs less than $1200. It... just doesn't seem very sensible from where I'm sitting at the moment. Nevermind that I wouldn't particularly look forward to programming a robot in straight Labview unless they're giving us the Statechart module and a lot of other fancy add-ons.
