Having sent off a number of people well on their way for computer vision, I can now offer help to more people. If you want some sample code in OpenCV in C and C++, pm your email so I can share a dropbox with you.
Tutorial on how to set up vision like we did: http://ratchetrockers1706.org/vision-setup/ |
I think we are already scared by the processing power of one ODROID! Your robot is going to catch on fire with so much processing power. (not literally).
Before you switch to 3 XUs, try one X2 again, but measure it's processor usage, and then place your order after that. I'm pretty sure that 4XUs will be equal to one CIM continuously, especially with the 3 120Degree cameras and the Kinect!
Be careful there, or everyone will wonder why the voltage drops every time you boot the XUs!
