An operating system is an important piece of technology, as it acts as the intermediary between hardware and software resources. That being said, an invention with hundreds of pieces running around a 100 yard field is going to need a good operating system so as to prevent failure of any kind. Some popular operating systems for personal computers include Mac, Windows XP, and Windows 7.
The operating system manages the CPU, Processes, File Systems, Devices and Users. The newer Operating Systems are Multi-Task as opposed to Single-tasking, like MS DOS.
There is also LINUX, which is the most successful open source software project. It is an operating system used by only 3% of users, but pioneered the individual operating system, with 600 different distributions available globally, LINUX provides the best individual operating system experience, which may be necessary for this invention.
