First frames from prototype SRV-1 Blackfin Stereo Camera
Prototype boards just arrived and first tests were successful, with both cameras transmitting through the shared Matchport (simultaneous feeds shown above in left and right windows). We still need to test the servo or h-bridge interfaces, but the voltages look good. Only issue is that we have to manually reset both processors after power-up - most likely issue is a collision on the SPI channels as both Blackfins simultaneously boot from SPI flash. Not certain yet how we want to deal with that ...
Discussion on this project continues on the Surveyor Robotics Forum.
