Re: Running the Kinect on the Robot.
Does Rule 52 (cRIO control of the robot) even allow the use of a supplemental processing device on the robot platform?
If we use the Classmate on the robot itself (all vibration and power management considered) and integrate via a network connection to the CRio plugged into the Bridge, is this even legal in 2012? Agreed the image processing is not 'controlling' the robot per-se, but it is certainly 'influencing' the control mechanisms of the robot.
We have found that with the Kinect shape game using the Classmate, it is very laggy (2 secs) and have freed up the little PC for something with more power as the DS. This was post-reimage, so it's the best its going to get.
