    Hi, I have recently purchased a TOf camera for mapping, I have tried to connect it with my voxl-2, I belive I'm missing somehting. I have interposers MDK-M0076-1-00, and a dual camera adapter MSU-M0084-1-01.

    I couldn't figure out what I missed for this, please any suggestions?

    Thank you,
    Best.

      @voxl-phoenix , Can you please clarify which TOF camera you purchased and what connectors / cables it came with? There are several versions / options.

      If you can include a photo of the TOF camera and the cables it came with, that would help as well.

      Thanks!

      Alex

          Hi @voxl-phoenix
          Please see these notes from here: https://docs.modalai.com/M0178/
          7db61fbf-5125-4b8f-94e8-f2e5ba9169c5-image.png
          So, you have several options of different HW to buy...
          The easiest which gives you more support of other image sensors is the Starling Front End Imager Unit, M0173: This link is without any extra image sensors ...

          Link Preview Image
          Starling 2 Image Sensor Micro-coax Front-end Adapter (MDK-M0173)None

          Product Description The Starling 2 Image Sensor Front-end Adapter expands the VOXL 2's video and computer vision capabilities by providing micro-coax connections to 4k high-resolution and global shutter computer vision sensors using the same configurations found in Starling 2.  Ready to Use Development Tools  Product S

          ModalAI, Inc. (www.modalai.com)

          Most variants include that exact set of ToF components you have, so you could get the version with tracking/HiRes sensors if you need that capability: 1e33bb80-aacb-4b3e-a55c-afb4262dbf82-image.png
          (note, the $79.99 is just board only and not updated since I did not click through the option).

          Hope this helps!

            @voxl-phoenix And I want to add that the two adapters (M0084 and M0135) on the bottom of your image are not used at all in this system.

              @Vinny Thank you so much for the info. I already have tracking and IMX412 cameras. I want to just buy Board. I have a small query, do I need any extra cables or connectors to connect this frontend camera connecter to VOXL 2 or does it come with the board when I order just the board only?

              Thank you.

                Hi @voxl-phoenix
                Yes, that M0177 flex you have plugs direct into the M0173 board 40-pin connector here: 2a2a4f8f-6b90-4ea5-937e-d0b0426ccf36-image.png
                Please pay attention to the "+" and "-" notes in silkscreen for proper orientation.

                Hope this helps!
                Thanks!
