Communication between components via Wi-Fi/Bluetooth

Can we connect an ESP32 camera module to the control board via wireless? Or is there any limitation regarding this type of communication? :slight_smile:

Hey @SanjaTronic!

Yes, the rules allow wireless communication within the robot:

3.6.2. Wireless communication is only allowed within the robot or between robots of the same
SuperTeam during the SuperTeam Challenge. It is only allowed to communicate via Bluetooth
class 2 or class 3 (range shorter than 20 meters) or via ZigBee. Due to the nature of the Rescue
challenge, the RCJ General rules on wireless communication do not apply. Other types of
wireless communication equipment need to be removed or disabled. If the robot has other wireless communication equipment, the team must prove that this wireless communication is disabled. Any form of wireless communication from the robot to external devices is explicitly prohibited. Non-conforming robots may be immediately disqualified from the tournament. Teams are responsible for their communication. The availability of frequencies cannot be guaranteed.
