ArducamIMX519 Payload for Sentinel and VOXL2

[Rajamani]

For my senior Design Project, I am planning to develop a modular payload for my UAV (Modal AI Sentinel). My payload is a an Arducam IMX 519 camera sensor with a Camera serial interface connection to a raspberry pi computer which will then connect to the VOXL 2 thru USB-C. I want to ask whether this payload connection is appropriate and will not "brick" the system? The Arducam and Raspberry Pi will be placed on top of a plate connected with vibration dampeners to the Sentinel's airframe.

@Rajamani , Yes you can connect a raspberry pi to VOXL2 via a USB C cable (using the USB C port next to the VOXL2 power connector). The RPI will be the "host" in this case, and you can use ADB from RPI to access voxl2 (just like connecting VOXL2 to a laptop or a desktop computer).

Please make sure to use the USB 3.0 port on the raspberry pi and test the cable / usb port before doing any further design plans (just to make sure it works for you).
