About Apertus, the goal of this project is to provide free open source technology for the current professional movie photography production environment, while relevant endogenous technical knowledge can be opened for free. This open source project includes open source hardware and software part when creating an open source modular camera system, such as ELPHEL hardware (which is an open source hardware and free software, which is released by ELPHEL. This design can be conveniently integrated into a lot of different Application in application).
Now, through the continuous efforts of team members, the Apertus project project has created the first open source digital movie camera AXIOM. Axiom is a movie production platform that can be applied to both professional and creative, and also filled with artistic atmosphere. It can be seen that Apertus is not just a collection of open source software and hardware, but more is a professional knowledge base, supporting each other, pursues and maintains free ecosystems.
Axiom Beta Open-Source 4K Cinema Camera
In the past few years, I was very pleased to see the Axiom Beta Open Source 4K movie camera, which has made great efforts through the Apertus development team to pay great efforts. Regarding this project, there are many people familiar with the Micro ZED DEV board with the Xilinx Z-7030 SOC architecture, and the Anni Mei and CMOSIS image sensors are applied to capture images. In November last year, the Apertus team discussed a group discussion video, video camera Max Gurresch and Leader Sebastian Pichelhofer of the project discussed the current progress of the project, as well as the machine and non-transparent part of the project.
The figure below is a structural diagram intermitted in the video, which illustrates the specific structure of the electronic board card stack, Microzed board, and other panels in the entire structure:

In addition, a more point in the movie is a perspective view of the camera case, as shown below:

However, if you think about the details of this complex imaging product, as well as the problem related to the AXIOM Beta Camera, you can specifically introduce the website of the specific building process of the Axiom.
Summarize:
After the open source software, many open source hardware, open source instructions, such as Arduino, OpenCore, OpenRISC, etc. in recent years. Now slowly emerging an open source application, such as an open source film that is described above. Although this Open Cinema project is initiated for film producers who are tired of expensive and limitable movie tools, it is also reflecting more and more people's expectations for open source technology open source equipment, so that they can be more free. DIY. All open source necessarily requires open source basic support, so the FPGA chip becomes a solid foundation of true open source. After all, FPGA is designed, DIY to hardware foundation.
