Limelight 2019.3 Update

Hi Everyone,

See the latest update below. Limelight 2 will restock during the middle of next week!

2019.3 (1/19/19)

2019.3 addresses a number of bugs and feature requests.

Features

  • Stream Rate (bandwidth reduction)
  • Set the stream rate to “low” in the settings page for a lower-bandwidth 15fps video stream.
  • Raw Contours disabled in NetworkTables (bandwidth reduction)
  • Raw contours are now disabled by default. This will further reduce Limelight’s overall bandwidth.
    • There are now ~180 fewer networktables entries submitted per second by default.
    • See the new “Raw Contours” pipeline option in the “Output” tab to re-enable raw contours.
  • Active Pipeline Index
  • Read the networktable key “getpipe” to get the true active pipeline index of the camera. This is updated at 90hz.
    • The active pipeline index is now written to the videostream underneath the FPS display.
  • Left and Right Intersection Filters
  • Teams may now choose between “left” and “right” dual-contour intersection filters. The “above” and “below” intersection filters were added in 2019.2.

Bug Fixes

  • Fix LabView Dashboard streaming bug introduced in 2019.2
  • The webpage no longer requests icon fonts from a the internet. All fonts are stored locally. This should speed up interface loading.
  • Reduce “driver mode” exposure.
  • Fix “Distance Transform” GRIP implementation
  • Fix 20-second communication delays caused by changing the hostname.
