When we wrote our vision code for this year, we were feeling pretty confident. Then, when we used it for the first time, it caused us to lose communication with the robot. We spent a day trying to get it working, and eventually we just tried pushing the 2013 Vision sample code (yes, with the lines to initialize the Axis camera and get an image uncommented). This caused us to lose communication, as well. For the record, we’re using C++. Any thoughts as to what might be wrong?
We were getting the same problem, and this was on a cRIO I with the camera. We then tried on a cRIO II with an image we placed on the cRIO using FTP, instead of using the Axis camera. It produced the files on the root of the cRIO and (using the code in the Driverstation LCD example program) we were able to print the distance and other info to the driver station. Try this, we are working on this too. If we figure out how to get it to work with the Camera, we will post.
