The random crash that I described in my second message in this thread is not related to the OS on which I run putty on. The crash happens on the VOXL2, sometimes even before I SSH in.

Hello, sorry to hear you've been having issues with this. Looking through our code those error messages are coming directly from our camera module so I can't say much as to why it's happening.

If you're using a completely new set of hardware then the problem seems software related. Do you have any way of reproducing this issue on a non-Windows system? Ubuntu 20.04 would be preferable as it's our only officially supported operating system.

I'm not an expert in this area so I've pinged someone more experienced who should be able to provide more help.

Best of luck!

Thomas

no one?
am i really the only one encountering these crashes?
once in a blue moon the crash still happens during bootup for no specific reason (that i could tell)

I encountered the same crash on a completely new and different set of hardware (VOXL2, cameras, etc) as well.
Surely it cant be a h/w problem?
