Hello! In VEXU, is it legal to broadcast data from the robot? Is it legal to broadcast data to the robot? Is it legal for one part of the robot to wirelessly broadcast data to another part of the robot? Would the system that broadcasts to the robot have to be powered by a legal vex battery?
There is NO restriction on sensors and additional electronics used for sensing and processing except as follows:
a. Sensors and Electronics MUST be connected to the VEX ARM® Cortex®-based Microcontroller, and can only be connected via any of the externally accessible ports.
b. Sensors and Electronics CANNOT directly electrically interface with the VEX motors, motor controllers, or solenoids.
c. The additional Sensors and Electronics may only receive power from any of the following:
i. Directly from the VEX ARM® Cortex®-based Microcontroller via any externally
accessible port.
ii. From an additional VEX 7.2V Robot Battery or from a VEX 9.6V Transmitter Battery
(only one (1) additional battery can be used for sensor power.)

No, this is not legal. The only form of wireless communication allowed is the VEXnet communication link.
