Hi,
I am on the way to make a description on the wiki, but an
abstarct now:
- Canon: look for the Canon Hack Development Kit. It has
an USB Remote
function, which actually triggers the camera via the USB
connector
- I fixed the camera to the fuselage without any gimbal. I
applied only
some precautional measure to avoid the causes of a crash.
- if you implement the digital_cam and the photogrammetry
module, you'll
get a telemetry message with attitude and position
information on each
shot. The message additionally contains an incremental ID,
that can be
paired with the image names of the camera.
- image stiching: Hugin. An own script is useful to create
an initial
arrangement of images for the Hugin based on the telemetry
messages.
I would be very interested in that workflow.
I'll be more detailed when I am back from holiday.
Sure. Thanks for helping out.
I will be busy with the physical aspects of that challenge for
a while. And remote triggering will still be a issue.
I have to investigate if my camera has one of those IR
triggers. Perhaps I can McGyver something...
Which Ixus model do you have exactly?
Canon DIGITAL IXUS 85 IS ( according to EXIF data )
That is actually not such a bad idea.
I was looking for IR triggers for this camera. But it does not
actually seem to be supported.
I would hate to hack the thing open. But it's a option.
