Description

One way to do this is to do some experiments with different resolutions and framerates.

Maybe setup the drivercam so that it streams to a file instead of the driverstation. We can use the size of that file to measure the bandwidth.

Other options would be to see if there are some stats in the mjpg_streamer that we can get at to tell use what bandwidth is being used.

Or, even on the receiving end, maybe we can use some existing tool to measure the bandwidth used.

We have a hard limit of 10 mega bits per second, so we need to be careful to stay under it.

Be sure to measure the bandwidth for real driving action rather than just static images. Otherwise video compression might skew the data and make usage look very small.
