I could understand for dashboard stuff on the o/i but the robot? (unless you are using it for some crazy powerful camera tracking)

My team tried this a couple of years ago with the vision tetra.
We used an industrial PC board (486 based), a solid state drive w/ linux OS (small kernal, fast boot
). We used a 5v DC-DC power supply to supply the 5volts to the board (the board required both 5v and 12v). We used an evaluation copy of a LabView inspection program (available to everyone). We were able to track and pick up the vision tetra ... but it took too long to run the calculations so we never was able to score with it.
