That feature of LabView was actually the inspiration for doing this -- I had been talking to someone, and they mentioned they liked the fact that they could tune their PID controllers while the bot was running. So I figured, why can't I do that in C++?

Yes you can modify values and such in LabView already. It's just that when you get the browser involved with the internet, the possibilities are endless, rather than a LabView window with controls. I guess it's possible to run a web server in LabView (there is example code on this) and modify values through that way... Though haha you've already done the grunt work for C++. Anyway, independent of this, our team has decided to go with C++. We thought we'd try something new, something that could be more sustainable than LabView. Last year, we had to throw away all our code during competition because we couldn't download it on to the Robot. (We only used the debug method during season). Anyway, awesome work on this!
