Re: Use of laptop on robot

I'm still not sure what purpose a full blown PC on the robot serves.

But...


Now I'm super interested. I'm sure you could piece together a small PC with a passive cooling system that can use a KOP fan and run solely off the battery for less than $100 a part. Solid state storage could be as simple as a flash drive that is booted from USB through the BIOS. Those are like..... practically free now-a-days...

Now just to find a reason for all of this....
