I guess my main question is: if I were to have a laptop connected to our driver station, what sorts of additional data could I get from that connection? Telemetry? Live camera feed? Sensor readings? Speed? Battery levels? Status indicators?
The short answer is, "yes" take a look at the end of this video:

on the dashboard you can see video, PWM power values (look at the bars to the right of the video feed), battery voltage or anything else you want to program into it.

If you come to a FRC event to see a robot competition, you are missing the point.
