Intro

Eyesis4Pi stores images and gps/imu logs independently.

Data Stored on Comments
Images Host PC or (9x) internal SSDs (if equipped)
IMU/GPS logs Internal Compact Flash cards (2x16GB)

IMU/GPS logs

Description

A sensor's log is a list of registered events from various sources:

  • Trigger for starting image exposure (fps)
  • IMU sentence received (2460 samples per second)
  • GPS sentence received (5 samples per second) - in NMEA or other configured format.

Logs are stored in a binary format to have smaller size. Also, there's a file size limit - when it's reached a new file with an auto-incremented index will be started.

Raw logs examples

Description

The pictures from each image sensor are stored in 8 triplets (because 3 sensors are connected to a single system board for the 24-sensor equipped camera) in the RAW JP4 format.

File names

Image filename is a timestamp of when it was taken plus the index of the camera (seconds_microseconds_index.jp4):

1334548426_780764_1.jp4
1334548426_780764_2.jp4
...
1334548426_780764_8.jp4

EXIF headers

The JP4 images from the 1st (master) camera have a standard EXIF header which contains all the image taking related information and is geotagged. So the GPS coordinates are present in both the GPS/IMU log and the EXIF header of the 1st camera images. Images from other cameras are not geotagged.
