Hello,  
I saw in earlier posts that you had the foundation for wireless programming and that, back then, it would possibly be in a future firmware update.  
Is this feature available yet for Wifi Shield + Cam H7?

Thanks

Hi, we technically completed it but I found it to cause a lot of issues so we have never announced it. The wifi shield requires way too much cpu time to stream images and do anything else. Better is to use a Bluetooth serial port with the Open Terminal feature of OpenMV IDE. You can wirelessly control REPL then.
