CHDK Hacking
So, step one of the project: build a cross platform ARM tool-chain, check out source from the CHDK project, dump the camera firmware, disassemble it, poke around the assembly for "clues" and create a functioning port.
More on this in the porting thread of the CHDK forum.
Buy Hardware to Build Hardware
But most importantly, since this is Canon (and that is why we love them for it), they can be used with an third-party firmware called CHDK (Canon Hacking Development Kit), granting full control over the cameras including running scripts on them and controlling them remotely trough a computer.
Goals and Conditions
Educational project aimed at utilising and expanding existing knowledge and acquiring new skills.
Goals for this project:
Goals for this project:
- expand knowledge of photography
- acquire knowledge of photogrammetry
- hardware hacking (build a 3D camera)
- hardware programming (port and use CHDK) on the camera
- use acquired knowledge to generate topography data from areal view
- use acquired knowledge for telemetry processing
- figure out what else is needed to make this project successful
- optional: expand knowledge of avionics
- acquiring any new and beneficial skill or knowledge
- creating a 3D camera rig from off the shelf components
- acquire areal photographs from build camera rig
- creating software for processing data from build camera rig
- optional: build drone to carry the camera rig
- optional: camera rig and/or flying contraption spontaneously combusts or disappears in a hole of space and time
