Communication with the device is at 4800 baud over the
NEMA 0183 standard protocol which is very common.
The GPS position is recorded in the Cine header file.
Connection diagram is available.
All of the Phantom Ultra High-Speed Cameras (v2512,
v2012, v1612 and v1212) are equipped standard with
10GB Ethernet and can be equipped with the unique
CineMag interface, precisely for fast downloading.
The 10GB Ethernet allows data transfer at up to 500 MB/
second on optimized systems, meaning all 288GB of
memory can be downloaded in approximately 8 minutes.
The CineMag interface can transfer images from the
camera’s high-speed memory to non-volatile, flash
memory at about 1Gpx/sec. A full resolution frame is
1 Mpx, so you can save about 1000 frames each second
to a CineMag. Or, another way to state this is you can save
about 1.5GB/sec to non-volatile mass-storage. A Phantom
Ultra High-Speed Camera, equipped with maximum
memory of 288GB, can save its full memory buffer to
a CineMag in just over 3 minutes.
Once a shot is saved to the CineMag it is safely
stored and available for later retrieval. This means you
immediately can use the camera for another shot.
Images stored on a CineMag are available for later
retrieval using the Phantom Camera Control (PCC)
software with the CineMag mounted on either the camera
or the offline docking station known as a CineStation, and
may be downloaded either through the camera or the
CineStation, using their 10Gb Ethernet ports.
The v2512, v2012, v1612 and v1212 are only compatible
with CineMags IV’s, offered in 1TB and 2TB versions.
No. We’ve been able to achieve these rates of speed
without the use of such technology
These camera have alot of
memory in them! How long does
it take to save a shot from
these cameras?
Is it true that a camera
that runs this fast must be
powered by either dilithium or
silithium crystals?
