  1. Re:Thievery on Hoboken, NJ vs. Giant Parking Robot · · Score: 1

    I'll give you tat there prob is some sort of Linux/windows box somewhere, but what I am getting at is that there are probably some DSP's, FPGA's, maby even asic chips, as well as multiple gpu's running who knows what uC/wind river/ custom rtos, etc. They prob also not to mention any simu link type stuff that is compiled, and impossible to support if you don't have the original models. I would imagine that just buying the tools and debug interfaces for this system would cost you in exess of 150k.

    bahahha, right you could find pay, train, and support a developer, provide testing and qa. for 66k a year. You must think that developing software for this is just like writing an windows app too. Right I'm sure there are .NET objects to do servo control power management etc.... you have no idea how complicated a thing like this must be, and how much testing is involved. Do you honestly think that this is just some app running on a windows/Linux whatever box?
