01/21/2009 Elphel line of cameras will not be influenced by the future discontinuation of Axis ETRAX FS processors.
Recently Axis Communications announced that their ETRAX line of processors is going to be discontinued in 2010. That fact will not influence the line of Elphel cameras - we are already working on the next camera system board design that will be mechanically and electrically compatible with the current 10353 boards, use most of the same software and FPGA code but have different CPU. Current 10369 boards are already designed in anticipation of that future CPU upgrade and incorporate USB 2.0 hub not supported by the Axis ETRAX FS. Of course that new system board will also use the next generation of the Xilinx Spartan FPGA, have more and faster memory, faster network connection. And there will be significant overlap in the manufacturing and support of the current model 353 cameras and the next generation ones. -
01/18/2009 Elphel is now offering Asus EEE Box computer with preinstalled development environment
for Elphel model 353 series cameras. Installation is based on Kubuntu 8.10 and includes all the needed packages and applications, you'll be able to start customizing your camera code even if you are new to GNU/Linux.
The project code is managed with KDevelop IDE (see screenshot), we also include FPGA development software- Xilinx WebPack (requires registration with Xilinx) that allows you to run your code in the camera FPGA

02/28/2007 Preliminary documentation for the Elphel models 353/353 cameras hardware
is now available
353/363 cameras use software based on Linux kernel 2.6 (currently - 2.6.15). There will be more changes in software as we used different web server (lighttpd) and included PHP (as fastCGI application).
More information and software will follow, you may find code here:
* elphel353 software package @ Sourceforge
* CVS @ Sourceforge
