facetVISION: Compound Eyes for Industry and Smartphone


https://www.electronics-lab.com/compound-eyes-for-smartphone/

Researchers at the Fraunhofer Institute for Applied Optics and Precision Engineering IOF have developed a process that makes the production of a two-millimeter flat camera possible. Similar to the eyes of insects, its lens is partitioned into 135 tiny facets. The researchers have named their mini-camera concept facetVISION, following nature’s model. This mini-camera has a thickness […]

Dintervalometer, A Custom Made Intervalometer For DSLR Cameras


https://www.electronics-lab.com/dintervalometer/

If you want to take a timelapse with your camera, it may be helpful to use an intervalometer. It is an attachment or facility on a camera that operates the shutter regularly at set intervals over a period, in order to take timelapse series or take pictures after a set delay. Daniel Knezevic had developed […]

The Making of a Cooled CMOS Camera


https://www.electronics-lab.com/making-cooled-cmos-camera/

landingfield.wordpress.com shows us their progress on how to make a cooled CMOS camera able to be used for astrophotography. In the last post, I uncovered a bug in the Vivado implementation which accidently removes the DIFF_TERM from my input buffer. With that problem solved, I picked up the project again with a goal to achieve […]
