Re: pic: Touchscreen interface, theory of operation

but, the points have to be entered before the robot is enabled, so a limit of 50 points is imposed. 50 because the driverstation updates at 50hz and it would only take 1 sec. best case.
The points are sent in order received on the screen,
and if they aren’t inputted fast enough the last points may not be received.
so a memory will be implemented on the screen (as it has its own processor),
and on the next power up, act like the points were inputted from a person, but much faster
