I think it's amazing they even manage to handle that insane amount of data. Say the sensor produces (only) 32bits per pixel, we still get 1GB per frame or 5GB per second for the claimed 5fps video. That would still max out a Thunderbolt 3 connection, and you'd need 10 times the speed of a modern SSD to store it (if you were to record raw video that is).
And then they have their signal processing chips to compress that stuff in (near) realtime…
- mappu 11y agoI went to a talk recently about the Square Kilometre Array radio telescope project. The talk was centered around the absolutely huge volume of data, the filtering process and the custom chips needed for signal processing. There's lots of work to do in this area!
