Re: 2009 - Live camera feed to drivers during a match?

The issue is bandwidth, and guaranteeing bandwidth, IIRC. At least, this has been the answer every time I've ever asked the FRC development team here at NI, even up to 2 weeks ago. Then again, the Game Design Committee has the final say, so it'll have to come from them.

Woah,
Does that mean I cant show the rpms of my wheels? or the status of limit sensors? getting more feedback from the robot was one of the things I was really looking forward to, especially in a match where it may be hard to see some of your robot.
