Chronos User Discussion / Hardware specification Chronos 1.4
« on: January 14, 2022, 04:02:31 AM »
Hi. I am new to the forum and work for a company called SimWay based in Stockholm , Sweden. 
I am involved in a project doing motion tracking in high speed. We recently purchased the Krontech Chronos 1.4 which we've been very pleased with.
I am curious as to how to find the hardware specification?
I saw the "teardown"-video on youtube of the 1.4 and found out about the SoC being a TI TMS320DM8148 "DaVinci" and a Lattice ECP5 FPGA.
Is this information accessible anywhere?
And are there developer tools to use specific function of the SoC's multimedia capabilities? One such function would be a resizer-function to scale video or images on the camera's system to reduce transfer time for precalculations before fetching full resolution version.
I am not sure if this part of the system is non-accessible and proprietary or if developer information about hardware and sdk/libs is possible to use.
With best regards,
Bjorn Karlsson
