snap snap, here's a camera module picowbell

we've been doing a ton of projects with OV5640-and-friends camera modules. these devices have 8-pin data ports plus pixel clock, hsync and vsync. the data can be raw 565 color, or JPEG data at 1080p! either way, you need a device with lots of RAM and the ability to quickly grab the buffer off the module. the RP2040 will do a fine job, but if you want to work with these modules they require a LOT of wiring. (https://learn.adafruit.com/capturing-camera-images-with-circuitpython/raspberry-pi-pico-wiring)

to make it easier, here's a design for a 'cowbell that will work with the Pico or PicoW to add a camera module, Stemma QT I2C port, MicroSD slot for storing images, and a right angle 'shutter' button. there's not enough room for a display on this slim board but we left pins 20 and 21 available for a TFT CS and DC pin for expansion capabilities.

NetBPM & sidetracks indev research... (article '16^12 '0x34)

Previous mainline article in the thread:

So yeah, been diving deep into English Wikipedia again in search for alternate digital file formats and some pseudo-official paperwork things as to enrich my setting further. Things like GeoTIFF, LZ4 compression, ASVGs, OGG as multi-track OPUS, UDO optical disks, MagnetoOptical, ZIP Drives, MiniDiscs, PAM graphics, JPEG XL, OpenEXR, Elphel cameras, AXIOM Gamma, QOI, TARGA TrueVisionGraphics... Either way, I am really looking forward to producing my own law bills, paperwork stationery and in-world memorabilia in line with the worldly context of such a planet along its history.

(so from official transition papers, identity cards & phonebooks to morphological freedoms bills & legal checkbook archives, it will be very dense but worthy to study)

In the meantime of a story-wise localization update, I felt like giving you some quick insights onto where my project is at overall.

Current status of progress on the worldscape itself (ignoring the astronomy and wider stellar sectors' matters for the time being):

Major cultures are pretty well set now, but I still got to place their dialects, creoles, pidgins, shared loanwords, unique jargon, diasporas & other historical components all across as I seek a ratio of 1:5 per major Civ as to have 6 major cities per major Civ, which definitely includes (minor city-states & more autonomous states within their spheres of influence / diplomatic reach) ones present for mechanical flavor and variety of POIs. I tend towards ~4608-4800 of those markers (so sixteen per major settlement overall) as to compartmentalize them per major culture.

Religions is mid-way in progress, as there should be far more of them added to the mixture & integrated into the lore tbh, but I do have a couple major pantheons going already albeit in very little detailing due to the Civ 5 issue I got rn.

Countries/Nationstates/Sovereignties are yet to be worked fully as well, too because I rely on consulting my Civilization 5 CE modpack gameplay sessions to derive better specifics out of it (or at least make informed choices given the encyclopedia, implied lore and other save-state details). And due to it failing to launch any one of the mods or saves proper, often in the past week, I am just awaiting some, which I am far from pleased of as a situation…

My lively DR scripture needs some revising though it has most key components in already, and the "personal project" pitch deck for 16^12 depends on the parts discussed prior to move along. And the localization of the first scenario module process is pretty… meh type-of slow.

See you all around soon with a further update on my doings. Take care!

an easy (well, not really, but still easy) way to create a filmic look for digicam photos

okay, i am again in my digicam era. recently, i’ve bought a sony cyber–shot dsc–tx1 and panasonic dmc–f1 (the same thing as the leica d–lux 1 from 2003), and i’ve also dug out my beloved olympus μ–7010 from a drawer

but there’s a problem. i don’t like straight-out-of-camera colours they produce—sometimes they’re just plain dull, other times they’re too cold and lack the warmth of film with a nice highlights’ roll off. also, i feel like i need to push the iso up to get that filmic grain-like noise

i’ve found an easy (well, not really, but still easy) solution, which requires adobe lightroom classic (not the cloud version, but the classic one) and the negative lab pro plugin (yeah, and it costs extra money on top of your monthly adobe subscription, i guess, you already paying anyway). this method is a great suggestion by erwin alejo—in this video he explains the process to achieve that filmic look

so, i won’t repeat his tutorial, but i sure can showcase a few “before/after” examples—the “before” images are on the left, the “after” edits are on the right

1 notice the increased saturation and the blooming highlights

2 the edited image feels warmer, and the clipped highlights don’t seem clipped anymore

3 same effect here—the highlights’ roll-off looks more natural and not clipped. plus, the shadows have that particular filmic cooler tint while brighter parts of the image are certainly warmer

by the way, as i shoot jpegs on my digicams, i use these negative lab pro settings:

1. convert tab – source: tiff/jpeg scan – colour model: noritsu – pre-saturation: 4 — medium 2. edit tab – tones: highlight hard – film: fuji

3. lightroom develop module i set clarity slider to negative 20 (clarity –20) to bloom them highlights

enjoy

Forlinx FET3588-C SoM Facilitating the Intelligent Development of Infrared Thermal Imaging

According to Maxtech International data, the global civil infrared market size will exceed 7.6 billion US dollars in 2023, and in the past four years, the infrared industry has maintained a growth rate of over 11%. Moreover, according to data from Huajing Industrial Research Institute, the market size of China's infrared thermal imaging industry reached 65.534 billion yuan in 2021.

With the development of non-cooled infrared thermal imaging technology, infrared thermal imagers have been widely used in civil applications. This statement is attributed to Huajing Industrial Research Institute.

Against this backdrop, manufacturers and institutions that specialize in the research and production of infrared thermal imaging products have begun to lay out strategies for the civilian infrared thermal imaging market, which is a blue ocean market. The breast surgery research team from Peking Union Medical College Hospital in Beijing has applied their independently developed artificial intelligence-based infrared thermal imaging system (AI-IRT) to pre-screening for breast cancer.

The team has also developed a portable AI-IRT system, which includes an infrared miniature camera connected to a smartphone, AI software, and a real-time updated infrared thermal imaging database.

When using this system for pre-screening of breast cancer, the real-time captured infrared thermal images of the breasts are uploaded to the artificial intelligence software, which then provides a risk assessment rating. The system is non-invasive, radiation-free and easy to use, and can be used in families and community health service centers for screening.

Infrared thermal imaging can be used as an electrical equipment monitoring system, which is installed around the transformer, etc. Through optical fiber transmission, the monitoring of equipment can be completed in the monitoring room. 24 hours, all-weather, full coverage of all substation power equipment for real-time monitoring of thermal distribution field, real-time grasp of equipment operation status, found abnormal temperature rise immediately alarm.

In addition to equipment monitoring, it is also widely used in substation inspection, distribution inspection, transmission and distribution cable inspection industry, so that inspectors can grasp the temperature while helping the power industry inspection work become more efficient and easier.

In order to adapt to the development of infrared thermal imaging industry, Forlinx Embedded recommends FET3588-C System on Module(SoM) as the main control of highly integrated infrared thermal imager.

FET3588-C has 8K video codec + 8K display supporting 8K @ 60fps H.265 and VP9 decoders, 8K @ 30fps H.264 decoders and 4K @ 60fps AV1 decoders, supporting 8K @ 30fps H.264 and H.265 encoders. High quality JPEG encoder/decoder.

ILLUMINATE

Research

                                     Noise is a term used to describe distortion in photographs, more often than not it looks like grain in film photographs, noise can also look like splotches of discolouration which if bad enough can ruin photographs (www.adorama.com).  There are several reasons why noise occurs,

1.     High ISO – the higher the ISO the more grain in images, this tends to occur in low light situations.

2.     Sensor size – cameras with small sensors can produce a great deal of noise, therefore if shooting at ISO of 800, sharpness and detail of a photograph can be compromised (www.adorama.com).  Using a camera with a big sensor reduces grain/noise.

3.     Pixel density – a sensor with 14 megapixels will produce more noise than an equal sized sensor with 10 megapixels, the reason being is to allow for more pixels, the pixel size has to shrink and as such each pixel will allow less light (www.adorama.com).

4.     Long exposure time – very long exposures introduce static which can cause digital noise.

5.     Shadows – if shooting during the day with a high ISO, the grain may not be noticeable until you look at the shadow areas.  Grain will be more noticeable in darker areas.

Five methods of reducing noise pre – edit.

1.     Use low ISO settings – to avoid using a high ISO, open the aperture to its widest setting, if shooting in low light conditions, use a tripod and a flash.  If there is still difficulty in achieving the correct exposure increase the ISO, however it is recommended not to go higher than 400, this depends on the technical capability of the camera

2.     Shoot RAW – by shooting in RAW format you can get the best out of the images.  When using JPEG, images will already have compression to them and as such there will already be a degree of noise already, known as JPEG artifacts (www.digital-photography-school.com). When shooting in JPEG format and with a high ISO noise will be even worse.  The good thing about shooting RAW is when it comes to post production, there will be different ways in which to remove noise.

3.     Exposure – expose photographs correctly, if images are under exposed, the shadow areas may become very dark and when pulling out the detail in post processing grain/noise will be visible (www.lightstalking.com). To overcome this use the histogram in the camera, this will you can get an evenly lit scene with shadow and highlight detail (www.lightstalking.com).

4.     Long exposure – be careful not to use long exposure as the sensor can heat up and the pixels will give incorrect colours and exposure. If the camera is set up for a long exposure, the senor will heat up resulting in grain in the image, as the pixels are a result of heat, they are known as ‘hot pixels’ (www.improvephootography.com).   Not all cameras are capable of very long exposures.

5.     In camera noise reduction – in many cameras there is a function called High ISO Noise Reduction.  This can be used when shooting at high ISO or during long exposures.  HINR works by the camera analyzing image and searches for any pixels that are incorrectly rendered, the High ISO Noise Reduction function will fix the pixels that are not properly rendered, this takes the length of time as the long exposure, for instance a long exposure of 30 seconds, the function will take 30 seconds to fix the pixels (www.digital-photography-school.com).

Five Methods of Reducing Noise Post – Edit

Before discussing ways of reducing noise post – edit, it is worth noting that there are two types of noise

Luminance – pixels display a different brightness than would be expected compared to those surrounding it, it is quite similar to grain seen in film photography (www.lightstalking.com).

Chroma – is where individual pixels shift colour compared to those surround it (www.lightstalking.com).

There are two main types of software that can help illuminate noise post production,

Lightroom – to reduce noise, this is found under Develop module, it is split into 2 sections each have 3 sliders.  The first section is for luminance, the second for chroma noise.  The sliders in the luminance section are luminance, detail and contrast.  When using the luminance slider press the alt key this will make the image black and white making the noise to be clearly seen (www.lightstalking.com). To achieve noise reduction requires balancing the 3 sliders effectively. By moving the luminance slider to the right, the noise (grain) will begin to disappear, however this may take away the sharpness of the image.  After move the luminance slider until the noise has gone then move the detail slider to bring back the detail, as with the luminance slider, move to the right until grain returns then slighty move back.  The contrast slider can be used if the image has lost some contrast.  With the chroma noise, the same is applied to that of the luminance.  In chroma, move the colour slider to the right until the noise disappears, if the sharpness has reduced move the detail slider, after which for any fine adjustments move the smoothness slider to the right also. Noise reduction is found in the detail section of the develop module.

Photoshop CC – duplicate the background layer (image), right click on it and select Duplicate Layer. Click on Filters, then Convert for Smart Filters, this will give the option of going back to change the amount of noise reduction applied. Go into Filter again then click Camera Raw Filter this will then open the image in Adobe Camera Raw, this looks similar to Lightroom. Click on the Detail tab and what will appear are the noise reduction sliders similar to those found in Lightroom.  To help achieve better detail, zoom in on the image by 100%.  Sliders are moved in the same way as in Lightroom.  When satisfied, click ok button when ready to return to Photoshop.  Within Photoshop there  is also the Blend If tool/panel. To access this open up 2 images that are the same and add a layer (clean photo is to be the top layer www.lightstalking.com),  on this layer double click and a Layer Style Panel will appear. In the bottom part of the panel there is a What If section, this has a drop down menu and two sliders; this Layer and Underlying Layer. This is quite different to that of Lightroom in that the sliders are moved to the left, when noise appears in the dark parts of the image this is when you stop and move the slider slightly to the right.

Although I have discussed Photoshop (more so camera raw filter) and Lightroom, there are also Adobe Bridge on its own (which I have discussed) and Photoshop Elements.

Photoshop Elements – here there is a Noise Filter. When the image is opened in Photoshop Elements duplicate the background layer (as with CC), then click on Filter, Noise, then Reduce Noise.  The sliders are differently named, Strength which controls Luminance, Preserve Noise and Reduce Colour Noise.  The sliders are adjusted in the same way as Lightroom to help eliminate noise in a photograph.

Another piece of photography software known as GIMP uses selective Gaussian blur (SGB) filter to reduce noise/grain.

GIMP – the big difference between this method and that of Photoshop is that there is no preview and as such can only view or easier to work on selected crop areas of an image. After the selected area has been cropped, click on filters tab, then Blur then (SGB).  In the information provided by (www.gimp.org) is to experiment with a mix of settings, blur radius and maximum delta. As with Photoshop and Lightroom the higher the setting the better, for instance, moving the Luminance slider to 50 and above (default setting will be at 25) will see a reduction in noise, similar to that when using (SGB) when the numbers are high; 10 for both blur radius and maximum delta, a reduction in Noise can be seen.

FET3588-C SoM based on Rockchip RK3588

Forlinx FET3588-C SoM inherits all advantages of RK3588. The following introduces it from structure and hardware design.

1. Structure:

The SoM size is 50mm x 68mm, smaller than most RK3588 SoMs on market;

100pin ultra-thin connector is used to connect SoM and carrier board. The combined height of connectors is 1.5mm, which greatly reduces the thickness of SoM; four mounting holes with a diameter of 2.2mm are reserved at the four corners of SoM. The product is used in a vibration environment can install fixing screws to improve the reliability of product connections.

2. Hardware Design:

FET3568-C SoM uses 12V power supply. A higher power supply voltage can increase the upper limit of power supply and reduce line loss. Ensure that the Forlinx’s SoM can run stably for a long time at full load. The power supply adopts RK single PMIC solution, which supports dynamic frequency modulation.

FET3568-C SoM uses 4 pieces of 100pin connectors, with a total of 400 pins; all the functions that can be extracted from processor are all extracted, and ground loop pins of high-speed signal are sufficient, and power supply and loop pins are sufficient to ensure signal integrity and power integrity.

The default memory configuration of FET3568-C SoM supports 4GB/8GB (up to 32GB) LPDDR4/LPDDR4X-4266; default storage configuration supports 32GB/64GB (larger storage is optional) eMMC; Each interface signal and power supply of SoM and carrier board have been strictly tested to ensure that the signal quality is good and the power wave is within specified range.

PCB layout: Forlinx uses top layer-GND-POWER-bottom layer to ensure the continuity and stability of signals.

RK3588 SoM hardware design Guide

FET3588-C SoM has integrated power supply and storage circuit in a small module. The required external circuit is very simple. A minimal system only needs power supply and startup configuration to run, as shown in the figure below:

The minimum system includes SoM power supply, system flashing circuit, and debugging serial port circuit. The minimum system schematic diagram can be found in "OK3588-C_Hardware Manual". However, in general, it is recommended to connect some external devices, such as debugging serial port, otherwise user cannot judge whether system is started. After completing these, on this basis, add the functions required by user according to default interface definition of RK3588 SoM provided by Forlinx.

Module 1 summary:

Workplace health and safety:

Creating a sustainable and efficient study space is crucial when spending many hours in front of a screen. Being wary of how this effects posture and joints is important in ensuring longevity. 

Pixels:

Pixels are the building blocks of images. The post production process is essentially tweaking the value of pixels. Values include aspect ratio, colour values, and a position in the image.

Colour Management:

A monitor produces colour by mixing red, blue and green getting lighter as they combine, whereas a printer does it differently, adding black, yellow, cyan and more, getting darker as they combine. This is one reason why a photo on screen will never look the same as a print. Colour management refers to the photographers ability to compensate for the various ways that devices capture, display and output colour. Be it a camera, monitor, printer or scanner.

File Formats:

There are several file formats, the main formats being JPEG and RAW. JPEG is the most used file format in photography is it is the default with phones, and is always an option on other digital cameras. The JPEG file format throws away information through a process called lossy compression.

Other formats include DNG, and TIFF and PSD (master file format).
