hozer: yes, I can, but the question is probably more if I'm willing to share it

marcin___: you can do extreme high dynamic range with every sensor by capturing two (or several) images with different exposure times in a sequence

so what do you expect the lowest cost sensor + the hdmi output board would be

good question, probably the cmv2000 + prallella combo

and it will be an open system, so I could do my own fpga-output board, right?

ah, okay, so it's a CMV2000+fpga+parallella , right?

and of course, you have full control over it

yes, zynq as platform supports Arch and similar, we used a modified raspian on the Zedboard

you're welcome to help/work there

quit

philippej created T258: Create an API. http://lab.apertus.org/T258

off to bed now ... have a good one everyone!

good day

good morning

not physically :)

to the left

the SX-25 canon, or whatever its called, had no clicky buttons, but then again it has few buttons

Bertl: im not concerned about clicks that much. I guess there isnt an internal microphone to pick up the noise

And there was a joystick thing on the c300 that also felt bad

okay, noted

sure, pm

bertl had the idea to put a rotary encoder whereever a button was envisioned around the LCD (https://apertus.org/sites/default/files/project/render-V2-03.jpg)

so we would have 6 rotary encoders but remove the original two encoders

having a small pushbutton joystick would be a solution between those two extremes (just 6 button vs 6 rotary encoder knobs)

is the joystick you mentioned 4 way + push ?

a slider tells you where you are, better for muscle memory

waiting at a intersection, cue the idiot trying to pedal off at the heaviest gear possible

(without the need to push extra buttons)

unless you always start off somewhere, you dont know how many clicks you are away

i find it easier to know what to do to get to where i want to do, rather than having to figure out where i am first

BAndiT1983 committed rOPENCINE3d77538fbffc: - Added Prototype project for as playground for testing/ideas (authored by BAndiT1983).

just imagine navigating a menu with a slider ...

do you know any device where this is done? :)

NO

what was the point? :)

by the way, will the beta be a usb host?

yes, the MicroZed provides an USB host port

aombk: what would you control with an analogue (non-stepped) fader?

framerate and shutter speed too

Bertl, too classic :P

intracube, what would be good?

like a mouse scroll wheel

that's what we plan to use

well, I don't think we can make it right for everyone

if the majority feels that a slider would be the best choice to select between non linear discrete values, we certainly honor that

anyway, yes maybe a poll(not only about that but a more general poll) would give a solution

aombk: is it archlinux on the parallella board?

aombk: well, I guess I can learn arch then

hozer: the distro itself will not be _that_ important, i.e. you can probably change it to debian at any time. Archlinux so far was the only distro (besides Xilinux :) which already supported the Zedboard/Microzed.

not from our side

okay, I saw someone mention it so I wasn't sure what was involved

we plan a version based on the parallella, but at least in the beginning, we won't use the epiphany cores/parallella specifica (except for the HDMI out I guess)

(where the primary platform is the MicroZed)

no

yes

not that I know of, we are currently designing those PCBs

yes, actually there will be (at least) two PCBs inbetween

not completely up do date but you see the stackup there

what sort of signal integrity levels are you trying to get to for the high speed IO shield

well this.. http://seniord.ece.iastate.edu/may0904/index.html

Infiniband would let you stream rull raw 4K frames to disk

there will be at least 6 LVDS pairs available per connector (2 connectors in total)

there are no MGTs on the MicroZed/Parallella

still a lot (bandwidth wise) will be possible

you can also do USB 3.0, eDP, 3G SDI and many more :)

on microzed?

PCIe 2.0 and Infiniband DDR are the same physical layer ;)

good night

well, now I am going to be obessing how to fund a replacement beta board with an FPGA with >5ghz MGTs

the PicoZed was chosen because it supports the Zynq-7015

it does??,

we have not decided yet, but naturally they will be available for expansion cards

okay, just please do me a favor and have those MGTs on something that meets PCIe 2.0 signaling requirements ;)

right

or usb3

I'm pretty sure we don't want to do USB 3.0 ...

(but eventually somebody will do :)

now this is a good deal if you want to play with a network that can handle raw 4k frames.. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Flextronics-F-X430066-8-Port-SDR-InfiniBand-External-Switch-USED-/201137294615?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item2ed4b78d17

a few years ago, somebody promised me infiniband equippment, but I never got it ...

I might have some stuff in a box too
