Arsenal, the Smart Camera Assistant
- caiobegotti 6y agoI've never heard about this device before and I just learned about it today as friends pointed out they're kickstarting Arsenal 2 and it looks pretty neat software-wise: http://kck.st/3aX6iKM http://kck.st/3aX6iKM I wonder if all camera brands support the same features of if those are brand-dependent as SDK varies across models. Also, if it's all "AI" magic software, it could be embedded (via licensing) into DSLRs or even smartphones... maybe?
- sam_bristow 6y agoThe arsenal v1 looks like it's a Linux-based system [1] running on an Allwinner CPU [2]. It seems like (at least in the past) they were using gphoto 2.0 for the actual camera-control parts. They don't seem to be taking licence compliance very seriously as there's nothing I can find that lists the various software components they're using.

- foldr 6y agoIt's an interesting device but the reviews I've seen have been pretty mixed. I think fundamentally the problem is that it is very hard for a small company to compete with the extremely advanced image processing now in smartphones. People are used to absolutely flawless HDR blending, for example.
