SRR Version 2:
Over the years, I've spent more time working on Super Robo Rally than any other project I've ever created.

In fact, I may have spent more time on it than all other projects, combined. (maybe not. I've had many projects)
After starting on it in 2010, it's been through more revisions than I can list.
The current system uses a Windows 7 PC running C# code to control the game, and communicate with the robots.
Over the summer, I will be working on Version 2. This version will move from the C# engine currently used, to a MySQL database on a Raspberry Pi, where the Pi can also communicate with the robots via Bluetooth.
The best part about this, will be getting around the current weakness of Windows, where a PC can only communicate with 7 devices. The Pi will be able to use multiple bluetooth dongles to communicate with robots.
I can't explain how much better this will make the whole system. I'll try to follow up as this progresses.
