This is @amescon PiLOT. It makes #RaspberyPi far more powerful by giving users the ability to incorporate several plugin modules e.g:
8 Digital Inputs
8 Digital Outputs
8 Analog Inputs
Profibus
GSM (SMS, GRPS data)
GPS
1-Wire
9-Axis Sensor (gyro, accelerometer, magnetometer)
Sharp Memory LCD

You mean like the corporations for whom the term "open source" was created because "free software" was too scary?

Beware the treacherous media structure pretending to be your friend. But when you see rotting meat, don't blame the maggots.
See Alphabet Inc and YouTube - possibly the worst of all.

@JordiGH Brillant #marketing technique!
The very opposite of "divide et impera": he exploited the language to blur the meaning of #FreeSoftware into what people now call #FOSS or #FLOSS.
I'm not in any way against corporates distributing #OpenSource but I don't want to give my time and skills for free to them.
For #Free is not for #Freedom!
In the past I was fool enough to think it was the same, but I was very wrong: https://medium.com/@giacomo_59737/what-i-wish-i-knew-before-contributing-to-open-source-dd63acd20696
Lesson learned!
Still time to do the challenges and submit a #GSoC proposal if you'd be interested in participating.

At the 2nd #MastodonLDN meetup. From the intros, there are lots of interesting people here! @banjofox is also with us remotely, answering questions about Aardwolf, an in-development Facebook-like federated social engine https://aardwolf.social/ #Mastodon #Meetup https://toot.cafe/media/k37qAnBXpc27Z7BqjWk

On Video Formats
In the near future the camera's video stream will be transferred onto a computer via USB 3.0 and written to a file on disk there.
The likely format being used then is a raw 12 bit image sensor dump with only small focus on adding metadata for post-processing.
While this is absolutely adequate for the current development phase, there may be demand for a post-processing oriented container format.
