Re: ZomB Dashboard 0.6: Beta testers wanted

1) The only thing I can think of would be an oscilloscope of some sort
2) It wouldn't from most peoples perspective, but from a programmers perspective, the cRIO is grinding away, updating motors every 5ms, but you have to wait for 4x that amount to update the dashboard.

You could also use it to do lots of data processing, and stream it all across in (near) real time. It doesn't have to be of any particular purpose, ZomB could be used for anything, which is why it has so many features that may not seem useful at first. Like Bluetooth file transfer, webcam support, video saving, video playing, save and play, and TCP.
