Camera teardown.... with a hammer! Hammer down Tuesday! ;)

I enjoy all of Dave's videos, but my favorite videos are the "mailbag" videos. :-)

you think maybe the 'this might take a few seconds' was referring to the time you need to touch the screen for?

Camera teardown? Yes. Playing with eRIC? Absolutely! Looking forward to see them both.

Hell YES I wanna see inside that cheap camera

Thumbs up for a teardown on the crappy camera.

So the shitty camera works better than the expensive tablet. That's funny as hell. Now i'm undecided which we should get a tear down of. The copy/pasta system out of a phone = camera or the "leading" industry tablet.

The eRICs deffinately desirve a follow-up!

"Sorry eRIC, killed ya mate."

Dave, MD is Maryland here in the states. Love the mailbag videos, keep them coming.

Would love to see more of the RF modules.

I love that spring socket design on the eRIC modules, very clever.

oh yes! a teardown sounds awesome!

Should be noted that the Visionect thing has a 239EUR DIY option. Check the site for details on that, and check out the banner image of dude being bored with it. That's great stuff.

Camera tear down ftw

It says "please CONTINUE to charge" so I bet it needs a full charge first time. Also, at least one of the spring connectors on the eRIC (bottom left) is bent away and not touching the half moon pad.

You need to tear down that camera!!

Is it just me or was he just tappnig instead of touching that e-ink tablet ? As in "hold to start"

"Drier than a dead dingoes donga" ! Love it !

I definitely want to see a tear down of the camcorder!

Please show us more of the eRIC!

Guys, 750 for the professional dev kit; 279 for the standard (sells for $349 over here in the U.S.)

did you try to touch AND HOLD for few seconds? could imagine they are polling less frequently in stand by.

Regarding the 6" tablet that won't turn on... Don't turn it on, take it apart.

I'd love to see more about that radio module!

Hey Dave, I would love to see you play around with the RF recievers, I feel like there is a lot to learn there and it could be a lot of fun. Thanks for taking the time to make all of the videos!

Try holding your finger on the eink tablet longer. It could be a lock screen to prevent accidental power ups.

Yes, show the video camera.

I would love the oscar, I am really trying to get into electronics deeper and a surface mount kit would really help!

Gutted that E-Ink device failed. Really wanted to see a little more of that.

Hope to see more from eRIC Chip and also want to know if the e-reader has finally booted?

High end video cameras use a SMPTE-standard Lemo connector for fiber and power in one hybrid cable. The Neutrik Opticalcon is a similar connector which costs a lot less, so we use it with adapters instead of the Lemo . The Opticalcon is a lot easier to service, too.

That eRIC chip seems interesting.

Love to see the Eric stuff in a new video

Hoping it will get reviewed - although as eRIC's makers we are always nervous about live reviews. Dave is amazing to watch though.

I would really like to see the experimenting with eRIC... As I am quite a beginner in EE Projects, and I never dared to do RF stuff :)

44:40 What's the name of those spring pcb sockets?, i can't find it on my suppliers because I don't have the name... Any help please? :)

Hello. Where can you buy these spring contacts for castellated PCBs? I've seen similar on Digi products and I guess they've patented their own version. I'm looking for this sort of solution for a System on Module board which is quite a pain to desolder and for pick'n'placing.

@AndrewGillard

Don't suppose you ever figured something out along these lines? :) I've been trying to get some sort of easy prototyping connections to castellations and so far the best I've managed is dicking around with pogo pins (either vertically or something like this: blog.adafruit.com/2016/06/17/technique-for-using-pogo-pins-for-solderless-programming-testing-pcbs-with-castellations/). You're right that Digi have their own system, which you can actually sort-of buy from Digi-Key, but it's very expensive and is specifically made for the size & pin count of Digi's own modules, so it's no good for anything else :( Someone really needs to fill this gap in the market!

that eRIC modules could be great for a practical example of the usage of an MDO while debugging a problem in a device with digital and rf channels... maybe you can lower it's VIN right where some of the digital signals generate problems in the rf channel and try to use an MDO to discover the events relationships/correlation

Hi Pablo. Did you get a chance to try the eRIC modules?

Dave, that video camera on about 10 minutes seems like a good device to test the AAA batteroo sleeves that you'll be getting in a few days.

I would love to see a video on those eRIC modules, they look really neat. Plus, don't you have a 1GHz scope to test out now?

Camera and Visionect tablet teardown. Also eRIC module performance test and review Please.

Eric Wasatonic uploaded it to KZread and the Internet Archive: HP Origins

MO is Missouri, where I suspect the package came from. MD is Maryland.

Only US$1043 for a 6" epaper "development" tablet that doesn't work. What a deal. Tear it down. Also interested in seeing the eRIC modules used.

touch and HOLD to start. It's made so you don't accidentally turn the thing on with a simple tap. Touch and HOLD.

ADNS 9500... Had the misfortune of dealing with it's older brother the ADNS 9800. It seems like every laser mouse is using some kind of ADNS family sensor, including mice that were made in the last year but the funny thing is that Avago stopped manufacturing the ADNS family few years ago.... BTW, they forgot to remove the tape from the lenses of the sensor

Post guy delivered me a package while I was watching this.

hi do you still have the pcb boards?

Do a video for the eRIC please!

The camera has the same video resolution as my Optio E30 :D Keep up the good work. I'm getting interested in this eRIC chip.

Yes Dave ! Please its will be a treat !

Hy, someone has the manufacturer name or any info about those spring contacts?

Would really like to see you work with the eRIC products. I currently use XBee modules and they aren't as easy as serial in and out.

those cheapy camcorders are good for quadcopter fpv, as they are so light but cheap, yet reasonably tough, have a video output and can be found in thrift stores etc...

Would like to see more on the Eric.

Thank you for charging me :3

Hello Dave! I have several broken iPad retina's, and this would be nice use of them! Have you shipped the board yet? Thanks, Richard

You should do a super long video about those radio controllers

The LED lamp isn't a genuie phillips one, its just an old one with some diy'ing in there ;)

By the way Dave. Thanks for the "tear down". :)

Can I have the blank Oscar boards? Thanks!

Not with any sort of quality. According to the preliminary datasheet, the maximum data rate is 115200 baud (14,400 Bytes/s) so it wouldn't even keep up with anything more than really crappy quality encoded mp3 data. This is designed for very low power applications where you don't need to send much data. There are some pretty good solutions out there for wireless video transmission, but this is not one of them. What sort of application were you thinking of?

Pr0m37h3u5 You may have no choice but to buy consumer CCTV devices as they are operating in permitted radio bands preferably the ISM 2.4 GHz band. if you go creating your own system and use radios that operate out of the no license bands you may have to get proper licensing for the frequency your operating on or chunk of frequencies and those license can cost a whole lot more than store bought consumer devices and the licenses are good for 10 years usually and start out in the $300 range per frequency. I would stick with regular store bough CCTV wireless cameras, and some are reasonably priced and have way better resolution that a USB camera.

Please do a teardown of that camera, that would something I would definitely take apart.. just to see if I would be able to send a composite video signal to that screen. The thing will probably have just 1 IC to control everything but would be funny to take apart anyway and then throw it away.

Hi Dave, Can you do a review on the ERIC RF transceivers? I'd love to know how it compares to the usual Xbee and nRF24L01.

The teardown for the camera should be you throwing it on the ground.

In depth review with that camera please! and a tear down of course... with a hammer.

Camera pissed him off :D

Hi Dave, PLEASE use that sharpening stone I sent you few months ago, that swiss knife is very dull! regards James

dave maybe a stupid question but a few mailbags back you got a portable mini scope are you willing to sell that? I volunteer at a repair cafe and i need a small scope for that

And why I'm getting so excited about opening those mailboxes????

If you can I would like just the blank boards for the LCD

19:30 now i know why the optical mouse part is a little wonky - he needs to remove the protection tape before use...

The multitool is a real common item on those 'boys stuff' / 'gift websites' like iWOOT, Firebox etc. Can get them on ebay for a couple of quid :)

Perhaps this Tablet is a dev version and you have to build your own OS with an SDK and flash it yourself?

Camera teardown. Hell yeah!

Please get deeper into the eric thingie.

lol at mail coming in at "Australia not Austria" "they know me" lolol

Cheers Dave! I'd love to see a full length video on the eRIC, as well as more of that sexy spring socket. Also, a teardown of the world's shittiest video camera sounds like fun!
