@paul-foley , it looks like our voxl-lepton-server is not setting the FPS field in the metadata : https://gitlab.com/voxl-public/voxl-sdk/services/voxl-lepton-server/-/blob/master/src/publisher.c?ref_type=heads#L338 . I do see above that we do set the framerate in json info about the output pipe (cJSON_AddNumberToObject(json, "framerate", 9);) and the framerate is hardcoded to 9, since i guess all lepton sensors are running at 9fps.

I just made the change to publish the fps : https://gitlab.com/voxl-public/voxl-sdk/services/voxl-lepton-server/-/commit/110b9cce4c021322566e46f36d6878fca55f7d26

You are using an older voxl SDK, so installing latest nightly package (from http://voxl-packages.modalai.com/dists/qrb5165/dev/binary-arm64/ will probably not work). So you probably need to take the source of the version you are running now (1.3.3 : https://gitlab.com/voxl-public/voxl-sdk/services/voxl-lepton-server/-/tree/v1.3.3?ref_type=tags) and apply the same change in the source code and build it.

Since i just pushed to dev branch, a new version of leptop server should appear in our package repo tomorrow, and you can download and try it. it might work, but your SDK is 2 major versions down from where we are now (1.4.x vs 1.6.x), so you may want to just build the patched version 1.3.3 :

git clone https://gitlab.com/voxl-public/voxl-sdk/services/voxl-lepton-server.git cd voxl-lepton-server git checkout v1.3.3 #make the change in publisher.c to include fps ... ... #start voxl-cross docker (you can download it in our downloads section: https://developer.modalai.com/asset) docker run -it --rm -v `pwd`:/opt/code -w /opt/code voxl-cross:V4.6 bash ./install_build_deps.sh qrb5165 sdk-1.4 ./build.sh qrb5165 ./make_package.sh #then, outside docker, deploy the new package to voxl2 via adb ./deploy_to_voxl.sh

Please let me know if this works for you!

@jeremyrbrown5 We have figured it out. It was the parameters SYS_HAS_MAG and SYS_HAS_GPS. Will be testing autonomous flight tomorrow!

Hello @newdroneflyer ,

In order to adjust focus of the hires camera, you need to do the following:

loosen the screw that holds the lens and prevents it from turning. this will allow the lens to turn within the assembly turn the lens using the lens focus tool (should have come with your Starling 2), it is a black plastic tool that goes around the rim of the lens and allows you to turn the lens. after focusing, tighten the screw that was loosened in step 1.

Here is the picture of the focus tool, it has two sizes - one for hires camera, one for tracking camera (if needed). You should have received one with the Starling2 (in an envelope, probably different packaging).

Hi @JoonaR,

Yes, the Starling 2 drones are shipped with the lepton adapter (M0187), but Lepton sensor itself is not included.

@cbay ,

As long as the Boson / Boson+ 640 (or 320) supports MIPI output, it should work. We believe that some Boson models do NOT have MIPI support (HW limitation) but all Boson+ do have MIPI support. Please check with your vendor to make sure MIPI output is supported.

Also, did you actually mean M0187, or something else? M0187 is an adapter for a Flir Lepton : https://docs.modalai.com/M0187/

@YUUJI-INOUE ,

Yes the square glass piece is the IR cut filter. It should be glued to the lens assembly in the for corners of the square. You could remove it yourself, at your own risk. Please see a similar discussion and results in the following thread : https://forum.modalai.com/topic/4826/msu-m0149-1-ir-filter (this that case, the lens is slightly different and it was much more difficult to remove the IR filter). In your case, the filter may pop out without breaking, but it is likely to break. You may want to put some tape on the filter before removing it, which would help avoid having loose pieces of glass.
