Quote:
You should be able to just enter the LabVIEW serial number at the popup telling you LabVIEW has expired. Or find and launch the NI License Manager. |

Re: Driven Station options?
Team 1073 wrote our own Dashboard that used a USB-connected touchscreen display to set the initial position of the robot. It used a UDP port to send the data. It was perfectly legal. Last month, we did a quick demo of controlling our elevator and claw using a Kinect, and by-passed the Kinect server. That code also sent commands directly to the robot. I discussed our architecture with Kevin, so I'm assuming it was all legal.
The whole safety is issue is managed by code in the DriverStation, Field Management Software (FMS), and FIRST code on the robot. Together, they kill motors if you hit e-stop, and officials can disable you via FMS. The dashboard is just a regular Windows app and gets data to our code in the robot. No matter what our code on the robot tries to do, it can't override a stopped state. For example, telling the Jaguar to move the motor doesn't have any effect if the robot has been stopped, or, for that matter, prior to being enabled.

Re: Driven Station options?
BTW, I believe the rules quoted mean something like an iPhone talking directly to the robot over WiFi is not permitted. Nor could the iPhone communicate wirelessly to the laptop.
