#Bishop rig demo 1080p
What is the CPU load while recording 1080P? What else can it do? Can it take 5MP stills? How sensitive is it, can it do night vision? Could we do (in software) live motion detection on a 320×240 image and when motion is detected switch to 1080p recording before the burglar has left? Can it capture images while recording h264 or are we sort of blind while recording? Is a video overlay possible? It would be nice to be able to stream live video from camera to HDMI output and be able to draw a user interface on top of the video. You won’t be able to do live face recognition of the person ringing your doorbell on a 10 Mbit H264 stream. Is it something constructed specifically for the Pi? Or will (some) standard CSI camera’s work too? What are our chances of getting a CSI camera salvaged from a mobile phone to work on the Pi?ġ080p, 30fps h264 is awesome for video recording, but not much else. Keep watching this space!ĭo you have plans for the camera add-on? Let us know what they are in the comments.Īs we’re now asking for question we already know the answer to, could you also ask for the release date of the model A?īut in regards to the current newspost, I’d be more interested in the specifics of the camera. We’re hoping to get these ready for sale in the new year, all being well at a price of $25. We’ve got some testing chamber time booked in December we need to be sure that that big ribbon cable doesn’t emit any forbidden electromagnetic radiation. This camera board is a prototype of the production model we’ve a (very) little way to go before we’re able to send it out to manufacture. Broom handles, however, are almost always useful for something or other. We’ll be making a little mount for the production camera, so sellotape will not be necessary. Pete has, in the tradition of makers and hackers everywhere, employed sellotape and what appears to be a broom handle in his demo.
We’re also working on a display board, which will come to market after the camera board. The camera has a 5 megapixel sensor, and can record 1080p H.264 video at 30 frames per second. This board will plug into the currently unused CSI pins on the Pi, using I☬ for control. He’s been at Electronica 2012 in Germany with Rob Bishop, where RS have been demoing the Raspberry Pi (the large wall-slapping game you can see being played in the video is driven by a Pi) and, most interestingly for you guys, the camera board. Pete Wood at RS sent me this video yesterday.
