Hi,
I am very interested in trying the DLP NIRscan Evaluation Module, however, its stretching our budget a little too much. I have the following questions that might justify the expense, or find a solution using some of the smaller evaluation modules.
- If you buy the NIR scan evaluation module, then I presume you could replicate the design/product i.e. you get the full schematics, but do you get the firmware (source) for the DLP4500NIR DMD, DLPC350 DMD controller, AM3358 processor and ADS1255 ADC?
- Ideally our implementation would not be using a web browser but dedicated PC software, are there drivers or code examples for say VS C#?
- How much of the processing is done in the web browser i.e. is most of the processing done in firmware?
- I want a fairly similar set-up to the NIR scan, but I want to swap the light source and some of the optics. Would it make economic sense to buy the individual eval modules and program them up (assuming code is available question 1), or would it still be more economical to buy the NIR scan.
My fear is we would buy this, modify the optics and it fit our application, but then we could not productise it because either certain hardware is custom or code is not available.
Please advise.
Thanks,
Tom
