Re: mmal: No data received from sensor

Sorry for the delay, I was quite unavailable those days. I investigated further and it seems that it comes from the camera chip itself. The last test I did is pretty clear: on a working setup, when I exchange only the camera chip (black square with short ribbon), I got the reported message, and it w...

mmal: No data received from sensor

One of the v2 camera of the kit I recently got has a strange behavior. It is detected # vcgencmd get_camera supported=2 detected=2 but it seems to stall the raspistill/vid programs. When used alone, I get this message # raspistill -o /media/DCIM/test.jpg -t 1 Camera control callback cmd=0x4f525245mm...

Re: I’ve built a telepresence robot using Stereo Pi

Awesome project, indeed. As realizator highlighted, it can do far more than what a telepresence robot usually can. You probably should improve your communion on this, especially if you plan to have a business with it. Although I know it is a prototype, I would suggest you to handle the cable passing...

Re: Getting Actual Distance Data (in cm) from Depth Map

I never did that, but if I remember my readings well, Z=F.B/D (depth = focal × base ÷ disparity) when infinity is at 0 disparity. You can calibrate your cameras to get the focal length and the stereo base in the right units. Alternatively, you can consider that F.B is constant (the distance between ...

Re: Colour Filtering Live Stream

I did not try it yet (planned though), but maybe you can also use PiCamera python module to get RGB version of the frames and do the image processing you need in GPU with OpenCV for example. Displaying the result on HDMI should not be very hard and it would give you more flexibility in the process t...

Stereomaton, could you also please give me the model, manufacturer, and (if possible) link to manufacturer? This will simplify dongles search for purchase. Sorry, it is a dongle from the drawer. The only thing I can add is that it is written POSS PSNKWIFI150 on the device. Inside, it is a Realtek R...

any idea? I wanted to read the script to help you, but the "Your Pi revision number is" message is not present in the current version of the script.

Re: DIY VR headset for the StereoPi. 10 ms latency for just $135

Filming a timer and a screen which displays it through the camera... It reminds me a similar latency test I did on an endoscope several years ago. However, I am surprised by the measure you give. Standard 60fps is about 16ms, thus anything under 32ms (Shannon frequency) or even 0.1s (realistic error...

180×180 Apple tree fisheye test

This photo was made by using a pair of wide-angle (187° circular fisheye) SOHO cameras mounted on the stereomaton (in automated mode). Although any additional filters were applied, the exposure is not good and the color balance is worst (bigger artifacts manually corrected afterwards). I think there...

there is a difference between make and sudo make . The difference is that executing through the sudo command, the make program get root privileges. You can remember it as sudo=" s uper u ser do ". It is always better to reserve execution with high privileges to the tasks that really need it, such a...

Re: Ethernet failure?

Thanks. As I work mostly with headless systems, I did not think at all about this way that might be obvious for others. It sounds strange that the hardware used to work and broke. Maybe a weak soldering on the connector that was damaged with manipulation (connectors and their connections are often w...

Re: Ethernet failure?

I don't get how you can have a terminal to type the command if the board has no network access. Anyway, even if I am very surprised and puzzled, glad you solved your problem.
As a simple user, I cannot answer the warranty part.

Re: camera calibration for stereo photo

Doing it automatically is not very simple, and you have to have a valid calibration of your system beforehand. If you want to do it yourself, you can get inspiration from the code of the stereomaton: https://github.com/haum/stereomaton/blob/master/code/stereomaton.py Lines 209 to 222 do the alignmen...
