Radxa Orion O6 Preview – Part 2: Debian 12 – What works, what doesn’t

Orion O6 Review Debian 12

I went through an unboxing and Debian 12 installation on the Radxa Orion O6 at the end of January, but decided to work on other reviews since software support still needed to be worked on. Since then, there’s been some work done, but no new image released. After waiting for almost two months, I’ve decided to carry on with the review by testing the Debian 12 image in a way similar to the Rock 5B SBC preview I did with Debian 11 in 2022 to check what works and what doesn’t on the Orion O6 at the time of the review. That will involve testing all ports, including 5GbE networking and the PCIe slot with an (old) NVIDIA graphics card, running some benchmarks, and also trying the Debian 12 image with a self-built Linux 6.13 kernel using ACPI instead of UEFI for the default image. Orion O6 SBC benchmarks on […]

Teledyne Tetra 2.5 GbE line scan camera supports up to 8K resolution for machine vision applications

Teledyne Tetra line scan camera

Teledyne DALSA has recently announced the Tetra line scan camera family with 2.5GbE networking, up to 8K resolution, a line rate of up to 150 kHz, and offered in monochrome or color versions. Traditional cameras (aka scan camera) will capture a full frame, but line scan cameras will only capture one line at a time to scan an object or scene as it moves past the camera providing higher resolution image provided the speed of the scan and the motion of the object are syncrhonized, for instance, on a production line. Line scan cameras like the Tetra are typically used for quality control at the factory,  document scanning, license plate scanning, and scientific research (e.g. satellite imaging).   Teledyne Tetra specifications: Color cameras Tetra 2k Color  – TL-GC-02K05T-00 Resolution – 2048 x 3 Pixel size – 14 μm Max line rate – 50 kHz x 3 Tetra 4k Color –  […]
