Go to Post One of my early mentors gave me wise words -- when designing a system to compile & analyze information, your first design choice should always include consideration of a stack of 3x5 file cards. - Jaxom [more]

Would you rather be required to pay $XXX more in order to purchase a PDA to attach to the bot?
You don't necessarily have to purchase a PDA, I am 110% sure every team has atleast 1 laptop in pit area. Why not make better use of that laptop and have it embedded on control system. Now you can do your programming as well as use it as an onboard computer.

$200 price limit. Why have binary switches if we already have a fully loaded/embedded computer? If the computer is on the robot, how are we supposed to see the information in realtime?
Why Binary swtiches? When you are in autonomous mode you are running an autonomous(); That means you are not linked to anything not even radio control so you can't communicate. In such situations you do need something onto the robot such as "Binary Switches" to tell your Autonomous(); what to do when certain switches are on and off. Correct me if I miunderstood the concept please because certainly I could be wrong.

Tom, is your system plug and play?
