On the Technicolor Dreamcoat, each blinkenlight is attached to its own microcontroller that, in turn, is also attached to an array of sensors (starting with an infrared LED and a sensor for heartbeat and pulse oximetry, but [http://memory-alpha.org/wiki/Miranda_Jones by no means ending there]), and with the microcontrollers communicating with each other (and maybe wirelessly with other costumes or a [http://www.science.uva.nl/~robbert/zappa/albums/Joe_s_Garage/01.html Central Scrutinizer]). A network of sensor studded processor nodes means that you have a lot of redundancy to separate the wheat (the signal[s] you're interested in) from the chaff (artefacts due to you moving around, external interference, or some wardrobe malfunction), and a lot of distributed processing power, so you don't really need quite as efficient algorithms as if you put all your processing power in one place - death of the big hunkin' DSP board by a thousand arduinos (yes, you'd have to come up with distributable algorithms, but I've heard rumors that all the web weenies who want to join the cloud computing bandwagon are already trying this, anyhow). | On the Technicolor Dreamcoat, each blinkenlight is attached to its own microcontroller that, in turn, is also attached to an array of sensors (starting with an infrared LED and a sensor for heartbeat and pulse oximetry, but [http://memory-alpha.org/en/wiki/Miranda_Jones by no means ending there]), and with the microcontrollers communicating with each other (and maybe wirelessly with other costumes or a [http://www.science.uva.nl/~robbert/zappa/albums/Joe_s_Garage/01.html Central Scrutinizer]).
