i wanna make an RC car that has a camera on it, so that i can control it from a distance (with a PS3 controller & a little TFT screen) without being able to see it. ie: i see what the car sees, & control it thus. a pretty ordinary problem
for this i will probably need some kind of video encoding on the car. i’ve heard raspberry pi’s are too slow for this; the video latency at the other end would be too big & you’d end up losing control of the car. the puDuino, on the other hand, seems perfect. particularly as it has - or at least some of them seem to have - a hardware video encoder built in.
but developing for a pcDuino isn’t like for an arduino. so i’m a bit lost. thus, if anyone could help me map out the pieces of the big picture & how they fit together it would be cool
( i gather i might have to patch the kernel to get a real-time OS - i’ve been learning that this morning. but to do what next, i’m not sure )
