With the XO laptop, the quality of the video that goes straight from the camera to the screen is pretty good, but the quality of video that is recorded with the Record activity, saved, and then played from storage is not nearly as good. Perhaps a coprocessor could help improve that video quality.
In March of 2005, Andrey Filippov reported that he had used a Xilinx FPGA with theora to design a network camera that could compress the image from a 1280x1024 sensor in real-time at 30 fps. http://www.linuxdevices.com/articles/AT3888835064.html Regards, John Kintree 4043 Delor Street St. Louis, MO 63116 314-351-7454 http://home.swbell.net/jkintree/islt/ _______________________________________________ Olpc-open mailing list [email protected] http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/olpc-open
