As stated in a previous post, I don't really want to post the source code, but if you would like me to give you an in-depth explanation of how the robot and driver station communicate so you can write your own version of the program, I would be more than happy to do so.

Re: iPhone Driver Station, No Computer Needed

Would we connect to the wireless router or the bridge on the robot?

Were can I find these requirements/what are they? As the student web design lead for the COMETS, they'd be good to know!

Just came here to post that! Nice to see someone else got it though.

I plan on playing with the app later! I'd love to offer some feedback about it.

Re: iPhone Driver Station, No Computer Needed

If you read the rules on usage of their logo, it is acceptable because I am part of a FIRST robotics team
Quote:
Commercial entities that are supporters of FIRST Teams or programs may use the FIRST and the Joint FIRST and LEGO Trademarks (word marks and logos)
I will contact FIRST personally to get a final ruling on if it is okay or not, but in the mean-time I will look into creating a new icon.

Re: iPhone Driver Station, No Computer Needed

I am truly sorry for the issue that came about, I should have read FIRST's rules regarding the usage of their logo. I found an image that is 100% CC and submitted the new application to the app store, it should only be a couple days before the new version is out. Again, i am deeply sorry for the confusion.

I was referring to the fact that you altered the logo - you moved the "FRC" text in relation to the triangle-circle-square logo and removed the "FIRST Robotics Competition" text below it, as well as the (R). Team or not, they are clear that they do not want that done, as well as a few other minor details (sufficient space around the edge of the logo, not put inside a shape or border, etc).

Whether you should even be allowed to use the logo is a separate topic. It's not clear to me based on FIRST's usage policy, but it doesn't seem right using it for your planned paid version. I would certainly get official clarification before using it, as you now say you are.

It is for these reasons that my own app in the App Store uses a custom icon. I would have preferred FIRST's official logo to mine as it is definitely better looking, but I didn't want to use it improperly or against their wishes so it was easier to just avoid it.
