Abstract
This article discusses a real-time networking infrastructure for a large-scale tactile sensing system to be used with humanoid robots. In such a system, real-time networking issues are of the utmost importance. Stemming from previous work, a theoretical model is presented and experimentally validated. Tests show real-time performance in a network of distributed computational nodes, each one in charge of managing part of the tactile system.
