Smart Dashboard - What do you think?

[pmalmsten]

Hi Chief Delphi,

New in WPILib this year is a little thing we call the Smart Dashboard. This dashboard aims to simplify visualizing data sent back from your robot.

With this dashboard, no laptop-side programming is required. Simply add a call to SmartDashboard.log() on the robot and the cross-platform GUI is automatically informed of the data and puts it on the screen for you. The GUI can then be customized by dragging widgets around and changing how they look (text boxes, dials, and progress bars are included; each have a handful of adjustable preferences).

For more information and to download the Smart Dashboard client, see the SmartDashboard FirstForge project.

My question to all of you is: What do you think? What would you like to see improved?

Thanks for your time, and good luck!
