Go to Post Maybe next season I want to develop and test a new metric for FRC scouting: Bumper Quality Rating (BQR). BQR-5: The platonic ideal of FRC bumpers. ... BQR-0: Moderate to heavy use of duct tape. I believe BQR would outperform OPR as a predictor of on-field robot performance. - Nate Laverdure [more]

Communicating with a laptop

Okay, so, now that all of team 1058's competitons are over, we are playing around with some coding. We plan on making our robot driven via a wireless 360 controller. Currently we have it working via a Laptop, passeing data to an arduino, then to the digital/analog IO on teh DS, however, this is inefficient, and slow. Is ther a way i can directly communicate from a laptop to the DS (or maybe even to the robot with wifi???".

I'm not 100% sure, but cant i send an array of bytes through a digital port from a serial port on the laptop (wit the proper hard ware of course)?? How do I do that?

Can i use teh second ethernet port, and send data that way?
