This program allows your robot to easily send notifications back to the Driver Station, which will be displayed to the driver and optionally play a sound
The goal of this project is to create a simple solution for teams to send audiovisual feedback to the drive team about the state of the robot. This is accomplished through a client GUI running on the driver station that receives UDP packets from the RoboRIO. This system works without special configuration connected directly to the robot’s router and through the FMS. Notifications are sent by a function call in the RoboRIO code, so teams can trigger notifications with whatever is important to their robot. Teams can customize the severity of messages which changes the color of the messages, and, if desired, the soundfile that accompanies a notification.
Here is the Github repository for this project, if you would like to take a look at the code powering it.
