[edit] Overview
The embedded computer runs the navigation and AI. We are be running Ubuntu 8.10 server edition, with a minimum of packages installed. Also, its running off a memory stick so keeping the size of all the installed packages is an important consideration to remember. DisCo is also installed to configure and manage all the different components of the AI, using it's interface for managing sensor and command data.
[edit] Other Notes
The embedded computer we have is a VIA EPIA NX15000G which is a Nano-ITX form factor (12cm x 12cm) with a 1.5GhZ processor and 1GB RAM.
[edit] Status
Ubuntu and DisCo are installed, although a start-up script for DisCO still needs to be written.
