Re: [Elphel-support] Ordering stereo camera

Dear Elham, I will send you another quote in the next e-mail. We will include SD-card and micro USB cable free of charge as these items are part of the camera. SD-card is needed for initial booting the camera and for recovery. Camera lenses are sold separately from the camera, because we do not

Re: [Elphel-support] Ordering stereo camera

Dear Elham, we can send you the Inline camera but the waterproof case is not going to be ready. It will take several weeks to machine some parts that can not be 3D-printed, after the design is finished. We can sponsor this project provided that your software is free and open source and all

Re: [Elphel-support] Ordering stereo camera

Dear Andrey,Thank you. You’re so helpful. I apologize for late reply.The robot is an industrial type that will be used in outdoor conditions. There fore, it is very important to detect obstacles with high accuracy  since the accuracy parameter is more critical than ambiguity. In addition, we

Re: [Elphel-support] Ordering stereo camera

Dear Elham, can you please explain the technical reasons for ordering inline camera? It looks like you plan to use Inline camera as 2 stereo cameras with 2 different bases. This is fine, but it has been done before, while the H-camera presents interesting research opportunities. Practically

Re: [Elphel-support] Ordering stereo camera

Elpham, Using dual 2-lens system does not give you any advantage compared to two separate systems, and for research project I would rather use 2 separate, for simplicity. You know that there are many ways to process multi-view images, most use feature extraction and keypoints before

Re: [Elphel-support] Ordering stereo camera

Hello Olga, Thank you for your attention to this matter. Yes, I remember, but Contrary to my opinion, my supervisor emphasis on purchasing Inline model. Therefore we decide to order inline model. so please quote for inline model, with 22 cm  inner baseline(for inner lenses )  with 4.5 mm lens,

Dear Elham, I have replied you with the quotations attached, from sales support e-mail. There is commercial information not related to the technical aspects of the camera. Best Regards, On Fri, Aug 26, 2016 at 10:15 AM, Elham Omrani wrote: > Dear Olga, > Thank you for

Re: [Elphel-support] Ordering stereo camera

Hello Olga,I apologize for delay. I must consult with my supervisor. According to our calculations, baseline 22 cm and focal lens 4.5 mm is suitable for inner cameras and for outer cameras we need larger focal length and we don't know exactly what kinds of lenses do you have for this purpose?

Re: [Elphel-support] Ordering stereo camera

Hello Andrey,Thank  you for your detailed explanation. Ok, we can design waterproof enclosure for camera. Is it possible for me to order Stereo camera with 4 sensors Inline Model instead of H Model? because it is very suitable for ours.Kind Regards On Wednesday, August 17, 2016 7:05 AM,

Re: [Elphel-support] Ordering stereo camera

Hello Elham, As I wrote you earlier - we do not have any waterproof camera, the only weatherproof (they withstand rain but can not go underwater) we manufacture is Eyesis4pi (it is more expensive device). Our users were able to use Elphel cameras deep under water (see project SCINI

Re: [Elphel-support] Ordering stereo camera

Hello Elham 1. The longest cable we have (from the system board to the sensor front end) is 450mm. 2. No, camera is not waterproof. The only cameras we have with environmental protection (can withstand rain) is Eyesis4pi. For other cameras our users made their own enclosures. Using 3-d

Re: [Elphel-support] Ordering stereo camera

Dear Elham, Elphel is a small company, and all our funds come from the product sales - we do not use any government funding, private investments or crowdfunding. Our margin is lower than 50%, so such discount means that we already pay more for the components than receive for the camera sale.

Re: [Elphel-support] Ordering stereo camera

Dear Elham, Your project seems very interesting. We can sponsor 50% of the cost of the NC393-H for your team and provide additional technical support. Will the result of your research be open for others to reproduce? Andrey On Mon, 01 Aug 2016 01:27:18 -0700 Elham Omrani

Re: [Elphel-support] Ordering stereo camera

Dear Elham, The most flexible solution will be something like this - http://blog.elphel.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/05/nc-393-printed-H-.jpeg , you will be able to change configuration if you'll need to. You can run opencv in the camera (not possible in the older NC353), but it will not be

Re: [Elphel-support] Ordering stereo camera

Dear Elpham, There are many other issues that need to be considered when you select configuration of the stereo camera What type of objects you need to measure, their angular size What resolution do you need - angular and in distance What software are you going to use - what kinds of lens

Re: [Elphel-support] Ordering stereo camera

Hello Elham, Thank you for your interest. We have several versions of stereo-cameras, different lenses are possible (that together with the distance between lenses define other parameters you were asking for). The only "constant" part now is the sensor. For both NC353 and new NC393-based
