I would urge you to contact FIRST directly (don't wait for the Q&A system - go straight to the source; PM me if you need to know who to contact) and work with them to see if this could either fit under the "non-functional decoration" rules or be granted a waiver. If all the data is logged on board and not used in real time during the match, and all the data were shared with the rest of the teams, I don't think that there would be an issue.

Could you by any chance post FIRST's response so that other teams that have ideas that fit this "non-functional decoration" waiver deal (that may or may not be granted) could use it? I myself am interested in data logging but of multiple different sorts (software, voltage, etc.,) but its just hard sometimes to come up with that due to the $400 rule.
