Talk:Hardware Wish List

How about a migration from ublox Antaris4 to Antaris5. I believe they are pretty much pin to pin compatible and minor changes are needed in the UBX protocol
If not done by someone else the OSAM team will be working on the integration of the ublox 5 modules in a month or two.. Danstah
This is done but was not really needed since it had already been done by the guys over at ENAC. Refer to the GPS page for instructions. Also for those using the LEA-5H is anyone really seeing any benefits other that fast acquisition? Because i am not that much better accuracy. --Danstah

GSM (cellular phone) modem, onboard camera and x86 compatible computer

with GSM modem you get unlimited range, camera gives much fun and navigation abilities.

With all that features, we need x86 compatible onboard computer, with Linux run on, because:

-- easy progamming and debug, a lot of GNU software available

-- all drivers (GSM, camera, USB, GPS) are ready

-- use script languages like perl to program

-- store photos, videos and logs onboard at flash card (loading only small photos over GSM link to save money),

-- easily communicate over the Internet (TCP/IP). Imagine the web-server aboard!

Ok, nano-ITX is huge enought and has great power consumption, requiring a bigger plane.
