Limelightlib (WPILIB Java)

Usage

This is a single-file library. All you need to do is copy the file into your Java project's "robot" folder. You don't need to create any objects for your Limelights - the library is designed to be used in a functional manner.

Basic Usage

Every method in Limelightlib accepts a string parameter indicating the correct Limelight to use. If left blank or null, the name is assumed to be "limelight"

LimelightHelpers.setLEDMode_PipelineControl("");
LimelightHelpers.setLEDMode_ForceBlink("")
LimelightHelpers.setCropWindow("",-1,1,-1,1);
double tx = LimelightHelpers.getTX("");

JSON Parsing

getLatestResults() parses the latest Limelight JSON dump into a LimelightResults object. Takes up to 2.5ms on RoboRIO 1.0. Parsing latency is logged in results.targetingresults.latency_jsonParse and may be added to latency_pipeline and latency_capture.

LimelightResults llresults = LimelightHelpers.getLatestResults("");

Each LimelightResults instance contains a Results object. Each Results object contains data such as botpose, an array for each target type, etc. With getLatestResults(), you now have easy access to 100% of your Limelight's output.

double[] botposeRed = llresults.results.botpose_wpired;
double pipelineLatency = llresults.results.latency_pipeline;
LimelightTarget_Fiducial = llresults.results.targets_Fiducials;

Taking snapshots
