• Learning: ● Fiber optic light guide makes can replace a mirror

Halo Encode to Halo Decode (Corvallis - Tokyo)

• 960 RTT / 480 one way

• Learning: ● One way delay can be deduced from RTT (Round Trip delay

Time). This was unknown to Sachs-Goldman (would buy it from us!)

FPGA Option• Initial algorithm

development on FPGA Implementation w/ Spartan 3E Starter Kit: $149 board.

• Development platform where learning can be applied for other pipeline functions.

• Flexible- USB, RS232, IP interfaces.

• Real-time requirements met for high resolution signal processing.

Initial concept evaluated

• System pipeline from camera to Pericles through gig-switch to VLC on a separate PC.
