Re: Multiple Cameras on Smart Dashboard
Be aware, that in previous years at least, there wasn't enough bandwidth in the Field Management System for multiple video streams.
One year I tried increasing our video feed from 320 x 240 to 640 x 480. It hung our robot about 10 seconds into the match because we couldn't get commands to it. Had to back that out quickly.
Two 320 x 240 streams are about half the bandwidth of 640 x 480, but there's still no guarantee that it will work. You don't want to do something that works fine in your shop but utterly fails when you're connected at the competition.
There was a document last year the discussed FMS bandwidth. If/when I have more time I'll look for it.
