Driver Station Vision?

So I just had this random thought: a driver using the laptop webcam to control the robot during autonomous!

1. I didn't see any rules that disallowed this, anyone care to correct me?
2. Thoughts?

Anyway, as for the implementation, I'd have one driver wearing gloves with vision tape on them, and have leds on the laptop powered by usb to activate the tape (or cypress io). Then I would setup the software to detect the y coordinates of each hand and send them to the robot. Maybe have the other driver with colored note cards that functions like buttons. Sounds pretty cool to me!
