1 Axiom Alpha Prototype

1.1 Linux Bash script/C Code to interpret all image sensor registers

Sensor Datasheet: https://github.com/apertus-open-source-cinema/alpha-hardware/raw/master/Datasheets/datasheet_CMV12000%20v8.pdf

Basics: Axiom_Alpha_Prototype#Reading_and_Writing_Sensor_Register

The current memory mapping is 32bit aligned, so the 16bit SPI registers show up as 32bit where only 16bits are significant.

1.2 RAW image metadata reader

All sensor registers are embedded into a raw image format. We need a software that can read/display these values in a human readable way.

1.3 dead/hot pixel detection software

A software that is supplied with several raw images and is able to detect dead/hot pixels and outputs all detected pixels positions.

1.4 Flat-field correction generation software

A software that is supplied with several (around 20 is sufficient) raw images of an out of focus grey wall and is able to generate the sensitivity offset of each photosite and a resulting flat-field correction matrix (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flat-field_correction). The samples images are preferably done with a fast 50mm lens stopped down to F4-F5.6 facing an evenly lit surface (white wall with area at decent distance from wall light). To further smooth results the lens should be set to out-of-focus.
