The VEX and FRC robot controllers are quite similar and it sounds like you both have similar goals in mind.

Thanks for the "plug". Communication between Computer Devices is an area that really interests me, that is what I do at my Day Job, and I find it a most interesting area of Computer Science.

I put a "call out" to the people that were interested in making a PC Program to control the Vex(and FRC) robot (see Does anyone have a PC program to work with the Vex On-Line Code?).

With Source Code for the Vex (and FRC) Controller and the PC, just about anything can be accomplished.
Windows seems to main platform of interest, but I have talked with Mac Users interested in developing a Control Program as well.
