Re: iPod Controler

The communications protocol between the DS and robot isn't terribly complicated but I'm not sure how "open" it is. It's fairly simply UDP packets going back-and-forth. I would LOVE to have an iTunes-downloadable app version of the FRC Diagnostic Window.

"Don't try this at home" (actually regionals) - during competition, FIRST will be on the lookout for teams that are trying to bypass the field for WiFi access to the robots. They obviously need to lockdown wireless access to the robots for safety and reliability reasons.
