1 Project Overview

This device, and when released the associated software, is designed to be a comprehensive remote control unit for the AXIOM range of cameras.

As with all software & hardware that is pre-production the information contained on this page is subject to changes.

4 Electronic Components

In consideration:

http://www.minidevs.com/product/CORE-A20.html hand soldered to our own PCB

iphone 4 replacement display (326 PPI 3.5" 960×640 px) (documentation through: https://hackaday.io/project/364-mipi-dsi-display-shieldhdmi-adapter  ?)

3D accelerometer to measure device orientation

4x AA battery tray

firmware stored on microSD card

no internal RTC and no button cell -> RTC in Beta instead

ALPS SRBE210200 rotary + push switch

SMT type rotary encoders:

Beta connectivity through Hirose HR10A-7P-4S (a bit expensive but massive) or alternatively 4 pin 3.5 or 2.5mm audio cables: 4-Poles-Jack-3-5-RCA-Connector-RCA-Audio-font-b-Plug-b-font-font-b.jpg

5 TODO, next steps

  1. pick buttons, rotary encoders, etc components, collect datasheets and extract documentation about each components footprint and positions here
  2. define connectivity to Beta (bandwidth, cable, connector)
