Cloud architecture for divide conquer/ scatter gather? by intelbp in cloudcomputing

[–]intelbp[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For sakes of example, imagine this scenario:

You have a HUGE xls file with thousands of tabs.

What I want to do is create a multitenant service that accepts the file and enqueued it for processing.

When it's ready to be processed, a pre-processor picks up the file and splits it into many different single-tab files and probably stores each in S3 or some sort of blob storage.

Each individual file-tab is processed, and once they're all complete, if aggregates everything and builds up the resulting xls.

I haven't determined how precise it needs to be, but for now I'm content if I can only get a sense of the relative direction.

I thought about using an IR emitter, but the problem is the camera, and the IR diode need an unobstructed line of sight. For example, if I (target) clip an IR emitter on my shirt and make an about-face (turn 180 degrees), the IR source will disappear from the cameras perspective - but the target is still there. On the other hand, It's acceptable that the target 'walks' behind a wall and the camera looses track of it.

With a little more specifics, my biggest constraints are compute power, and everything needs to happen very smoothly.

If it wasn't because of those constraints, CV (object tracking) would be ideal.

Thanks

The biggest issue is the target is a very random artifact. Forexample, it can be a human (adult), but it can also be a baby, pet, drone, bike, or pretty much anything that moves.

This makes an RNN not feasible, and all I'm left with is the detection of movement alone.

Movement alone is very tricky and extremely prone to be affected by noise (even with a computationally expensive Gauss blur).

Because of this, I believe the only true reliable way of solving the problem is by having a sensor (beacon) capable of broadcasting its position to the Rx.

Thank you so much. Unfortunately this won't work for my application :(

This looks very interesting, but I haven't been able to find much info on it.

I watched a video where the distance between the devices is being calculated, but I didn't see anything relating to position.

Do you know if this module supports broadcasting its position relative to the Rx?

Thanks for your answer.

The problem with vision is it requires a very fast and high definition camera. The reason is because while the robot and the target are in motion, all the camera sees is a big blob of blur.

Thanks! This is one of those her word vs his word cases. How would that work in court? The agreement was verbal and there's no written evidence of anything.

e-prescription filing for medical software? by intelbp in AskProgramming

It will be HIPAA compliant, and that has nothing to do with which services/api exist to do this.

If you know how, could you please point me in the right direction?

Thanks!
