Using A PS3 With The cRio
Whos down?  Think of all the power you have in your hands. Boot up linux and take charge of the SPUs on the PS3, will be the bomb. Why would you need it you ask?  Autonomous, See the DARPA Cars, they have like 10-20 PC in the trunk. Its $300 so its under the $400 rule and a lot more potential than Arduino or other tiny things. You see where I am going with this? You will have a bad boy of a robot next year if you fully utilize the autonomous perception, logic and have it run on a PS3. Yes sure the PS3 can not control motors itself (Its illegal too BTW) so it communicates with the cRio using an ethernet cable and the sensors with USB bridged by Arduino and cameras just directly connected by USB. Its genius, My goal would be to utilize a PS3 with Fully Autonomous control next year. My dreams get bigger and bigger...

I made this thread because this forum seems to die off after the competition... Keep the fire burning
