Using a Wii Remote to drive the robot: Legal?
Is using a Wii Remote for driving a robot legal? According to the rule book (specifically rules 61 and 62 from Section 4.1.9):
R61
All signals must originate from the OPERATOR CONSOLE and be transmitted to the ROBOT via the ARENA network.
R62
No form of wireless communication shall be used to communicate to, from, or within the ROBOT, except those required per R56 and R61 (e.g. radio modems from previous FIRST competitions and Bluetooth devices are not permitted on the ROBOT during competition).
But does this exclude a Wii Remote interfacing with the driver station computer and not with the robot directly? Any clarification appreciated!

Sorry- therefore IOU 1 Battery- you can collect it on I-95 about 1 mile south of exit 13A in the center lane...... (ps- of course that battery is "free of charge") - Wayne C. [more]
