<p>Desert Star Systems Project Page</p> <p><b>New page</b></p><div>== Desert Star Systems ==<br /> [http://www.desertstar.com Desert Star Systems home page]<br /> <br /> <br /> DSS is a small company that designs and manufactures a variety of equipment for specialty applications, primarily oceanographic and military.<br /> <br /> We are currently helping support the [[SCINI: Submersible Capable of under Ice Navigation and Imaging]] with acoustic navigation and image data collection. <br /> Our first project with the elphel camera will be a simplified image capture and annotation application in support of SCINI.<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> == Future Projects ==<br /> We are also exploring the use of the camera in future imaging applications. Some research projects which we will be undertaking, once the learning curve has been climbed:<br /> <br /> Histogram spreading to allow for the trade off of image noise vs exposure time/light level<br /> <br /> BTC compression for high frame rate at the expense of bandwidth and to free up some on-board FPGA space.<br /> <br /> More application specific autoexposure algorithms<br /> <br /> Autofocus metric calculations.<br /> <br /> Emccd (we currently use the tc-253). <br /> <br /> Supporting the interfacing of an lcd viewport, and UI for handheld operation.<br /> <br /> Cannon ef lens control drivers.<br /> <br /> Autonomous image acquisition.<br /> <br /> Image transfer via non-ethernet pipes.</div>
