Re: On Board Computer
We used it for image processing this year. We had a Kinect plugged into the onboard PC (consisting of a Zotac ITX motherboard with a dual-core Atom 330 and an SSD), image data was sent back to an applet running on the driver station where the driver could line up the target, get the distance, and then the wheel speed for the shooter would be calculated. Some teams did great image processing by using the Axis camera and doing all the processing on the driver station, but there certainly are some nice benefits to doing it all on the robot (one of them being that you can use the Kinect on the robot) and we hope to improve our system in the future as well.
