UdooX86 is ready for the orbiting space station ?

Do you know if the UdooX86 is ready for the orbiting space station in the hands of the Italian or American astronaut ?

 

Rumor or what?
Do you know for space expedition application, rad-hard is (or at least, used to be) a requirement???

 

Dear ccs_hello,

I think that Udoox86 may be useful for new realtime experimentation in the space since UdooX86 has a completely innovative hardware architecture and so the experiments should be completely different from those in the past

 

You still have a high radiation environment. Which needs radiation hardened equipment.

 

Yes, of course it needs a suitable case specific for the space

 

Didn't they take a regular almost-off-the-shelf laptop to the ISS to see if it could work?

 

Dear Maurice

I don't know. I know only that in the ISS there are very laptop.

 

There was definitely a Raspberry Pi that went to the Space Station and I would have thought that the UDOO x86 fell into a similar category?

Guess the makers movement and student education can make on-board the ISS be easier
(i.e., not involved in mission-critical use cases...)

 

Not exactly a UDOO or Raspberry: "Space station to test supercomputer bathed in cosmic rays"
