Framerate will be determined by the update rate at which the new Driver's Station communicates with the bot, which will be limited by the wireless bandwidth.

Resolution will be determined by the packet size of said updates.

The camera is color.

It is color-based tracking, however they didn't say you couldn't have two and it looks like it will be easy to do some limited multi-color shape tracking given the speed of the processor.

I'm not sure if it uses the FPGA to process the color tracking.
