Re: [robocup-athome] External Computing Devices

Hi Anas,

In general, external computing is fine ... But you have to expect network issues: robocup is just like a conference with 2000 participants, lots of robots and standard infrastructure so network lag and connection loss are not uncommon

Hi All,

I have been requested to ask this question by the TC. We are currently using two external computing devices for the HSR:

1. Google Cloud SDK
2. A custom workstation with Ubuntu 14.04

My questions are:

• Are these valid external computing devices that can be used in robocup?

(Apparently yes)

• What are some experiences with internet/cloud based services? Are they

reliable or should we try to keep things as local as possible?

Thanks! Anas _______________________________________________ robocup-athome mailing list r************e@lists.robocup.org http://lists.robocup.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/robocup-athome
