Re: Bluetooth!?!

Yes it is true that Bluetooth would interfere with wifi at 2.4 ghz but if using 5ghz it would minimalize the problem

At IRI the FIRST rep told us the current wireless units they are testing are 802.11a so it would be in the 5ghz range.

That's what I remember hearing too.

Since the NI controller doesn't have a bluetooth receiver, would it be possible to put some kind of bluetooth-to-ethernet adapter on the operator interface to send the signals to the bot?

Re: Bluetooth!?!

i don't about blue tooth, but as long as there is wireless program transfer onto the robot, i am more than pleased. no more being yelled at or yelling at random people standing next to the robot to hit program and run from the robot.
