6. Camera: MT9J003 CMOS Digital Image Sensor Why This Camera? Imaging Array 3664(H) x 2748(V) Speed/Output Frame Rate: 15 fps (HiSPi serial I/F) 7.5 fps (parallel I/F) Data Rate: 2.8 Gb/s (HiSPi serial I/F) 80 Mp/s (parallel I/F) Data Format: 12-bit RAW Temperature Range –30°C to +70°C Power Supply: 1.8V – 2.8V 638mW @ full resolution

7. Interfaces D3 Camera Interface -16-bit parallel output -6 Miscellaneous positions -Two wire I²C bus interface -Several clock and control positions CameraLink -LVDS to achieve theoretical transmission rate of 1.923Gbps -Not dependent on a particular supply voltage because of low signal voltage swing GigE -High bandwidth for high-speed, and high resolution cameras -Downward compatible with 10/100 Mhz Ethernet -Operates at a fast frame rate

8. The Connector Board Speculation of finished product: Ports for data I/O.

9. Where We Started

10. Initial Concept Specifications call for external ports: – (2) CameraLink (LVDS) – (2) Gigabit Ethernet – Power in (9V to 36V) – Sync – Serial (RS-232) Courtesy D3 Engineering

11. Things to Consider Q: What does this do beyond wire connectors? – Will include some IC's that might otherwise be on the main, FPGA board. Q: Do all of these connectors need to be on a circuit board? – Probably not Q: Is there anything else that needs an I/O port? – The Inertial Navigation System (INS) will be housed separately – An external Serial ATA (SATA) will be included Q: How will data be transferred from the connector board to the FPGA board and vice-versa? – A ribbon cable to carry data signals – CameraLink & GigE interfaces adapted to D3

12. After Initial Brainstorming

13. The Inertial Navigation System Provides location and directional data. Location determined by a Global Positioning System (GPS) device. Direction determined by an Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU). Important information to have for this kind of camera system.

14. Considering the Options MicroStrain 3DM Both can be used with RS232 port. NovAtel SPAN

15. Enclosure Consideration Some models contain the GPS and IMU in a single unit, others separate them. May have noteworthy impact on size and design of the system enclosure.
