Answered: Allowed items in driver station and on robot(s)

During the skyrise season, many of my teammates missed out on matches because they were working in the pit.

I was wondering several things, such things that could not be answered in Answered: What are we allowed to bring into the Driver's Station? - VRC > Nothing But Net (15/16) - VEX Forum

The first of which is a wireless IP camera (or any wireless streaming camera); would it be legal to mount an IP camera to our robot and stream live matches from our robot to a laptop in the pit for our teammates to watch?

These cameras would have no communication with our robot, but I am still not 100% sure that it would be allowed.

Also, I was wondering if we are allowed to bring a camera down to the driver station to film our matches.

From our previous response: “We want to ensure that there is no wireless communication taking place”.

Thus, this is clearly illegal.

Yes, this is legal, provided that any wireless communication devices on the camera are turned off.

Thanks Karthik!
