• Many mics

  Today was a good day (Ice Cube)

  Tested these mics

  Not really "tested" I plugged em and recorded video

  There were so many good shots mmm the light was good

• It's not segfault it's not segfault ohhhh....

  yeah... been getting this lately

  I think it's pyaudio but haven't pinned down the reason

  I went to a nice park as a result of the local one being closed, it was a great decision that place is way bigger though farther away but still not a bad drive

  Today was an amazing day at a park I hadn't been to before, I can feel my arms still burning ha I was in the sun for so long

  The segfault stuff kept happening but the systemd service would restart itself and the video/audio merge in general was fine

• This camera runs ffmpeg

  Few USB-related updates

  Finally... don't have to sync external mics

  Supports USB mic (at least 1, Lavalier) audio merged into mp4 video from h264

  Also added mass storage transfer (don't have to use SFTP eg. FileZilla)

  And with Delete All Files again don't have to SSH into it to remove files

• Arducam 8-50mm and future video camera

  Jacob David C Cunningham • 05/20/2024 at 17:14 • 0 comments

  The ml-hat-cam's gearing was beefy, so I gotta make it smaller, control all rings (3) and add linear stabilization (x-y).

  It'll be hard because the cantilevered load (heavy lens/steppers)

• 16mm day out at park and feature dev

  I'm starting to envision the next stage as I use this camera more and more

  More cameras...

  For some reason the color yellow... is in my mind

  And a flip display/camcorder style plus sliding rail stabilizer for the lens so videos look better... may make more sense to have an outside/full body gimbal but still. Because the sensor one also has to hold up lenses attached to it.

  Oh yeah the other thing is small steppers that autofocus the lens. I've done some work with that (laplace).

• Arducam 35mm

  I need to do some kind of stabilization in the future, the 1080P video is pretty usable

  The vibration is brutal particularly on the higher mm lens
  

• Lot of sample footage 1080P 30FPS 5mm 12mm 35mm CCTV lenses

  Idk what to call this but it's what cameras normally have ha, where you can see what you're recording.

• Another day out

  I got some better shots

  I have some code in progress now, not sure if I'll get it done today/soon.

  Will address:

  - USB file transfer (no wifi network needed eg. sftp)

  - delete all camera/video files from menu choice

  - reset battery from menu choice (vs. current percentage check)
