Practice Field Management System (PFMS)

What is this?

This is an unofficial, match play only, FIRST Robotics Competition Field Management System, designed for use to just run robots on a practice field.

Features

• Easy Setup. (No $20,000 equipment roadcase, just a computer, router, and other optional materials)
• Not Expensive. (Just use a $60 router and one regular computer as the server.)
• Easily Configurable. (10 minute autonomous? Why not!)

Documentation
