Re: Streaming video from the robot

I highly doubt that you can do it live. Phase 1: If you aren't using the camera as a robot sensor, you'll need to declare it to FIRST engineering for clearance to use it at the event. If they don't pass it, you can't do it anyway. If you're using the sensor on the robot, you'll need to go through the Classmate, which shouldn't be using its built-in wireless anyway (there are a number of rules that could easily cover this).

Phase 2: Given that you legally do it as mentioned above, you now have to get to the internet reliably. Not easy, and technically not quite legal.

Rules covering this can be found in Section 3, Section 7, Section 8, and Section 9 of the Manual.
