Re: Vision on separate board

I am also working on vision processing for our team. After finding out about the bandwidth limit restrictions, I decided it would be better to do all the work onboard the robot. I was loving the Pi, until, today, I found out about the odroid. Just made me nuts. The processor should be faster than my new i3 laptop! OpenCV might like running on the odroid. I find the Pi good for continuous applications requiring less power. However, I think the odroid will be more of the "performance," what is needed in a robot. Also, my Pi is oc'ed to 1.1GHz. Use a USB Camera to get away from network. Also, for some of these boards, you can use i2C instead of network, reducing network load and even making the system more robust.
