Linux video camera geo-tags, writes to SATA drives

,----[ Quote ]
| The current installment describes what has to be Elphel's neatest 
| accomplishment yet: shoehorning SATA storage, a GPS receiver, electronic  
| compass, and multi-camera timing synchronization into its NC353L camera. The 
| NC353L camera (pictured top-of-page, click here for a larger view) runs Linux 
| on a 200MHz Axis Etrex system-on-chip (SoC) processor (CRIS architecture). 
| The camera also incorporates an FPGA (field-programmable gate array) 
| programmed with HDL (hardware description language) that Elphel publishes 
| under the GPL3. (Also available under open licenses: a fancy AJAX interface 
| and of course, free Ogg Theora codecs.)

Embedded Linux research report ships

,----[ Quote ]
| EDC noted that some 40 percent of the survey's 500 respondents were targeting
| embedded Linux.
|
| [...]
|
| Also in the earlier reports, Andrews observed that the need for RTOS source
| code was "one of the reasons that proprietary RTOSes created in-house for a
| specific system have long been popular, and now it's a primary motivating
| factor in the adoption of Embedded Linux."
|
| The now completed survey results are said to include "expert analysis" from
| Ann Thryft, a 20-year industry veteran. The report includes chapters on
| platforms, processors, tools, languages, security, target devices, mobile
| development, and of course, Linux.
