I can now interface with the click-wheel, the focus/shutter button and the small auxiliary button, and use them to drive the menu system. https://vimeo.com/639963748 The interface was comparatively simple in the end. It was possible to see whichContinue reading “The Control Module (Part 2)”

The control module
This week, I took delivery of a scroll-wheel and shutter-button assembly for the T-90. The idea is to learn how to interface with the controls, and use them to drive the menu system on the Arduino. This really is central to the project, as interfacing with the native control systems, sensors and actuators will beContinue reading “The control module”

Last night I wired up a 128×64 pixel I2C OLED display to an Arduino Mega 2560 as a first step to building the user interface of the T90. I made a splash screen of the Canon T-90 logos, followed by the main display. The main advantage of the matrix display, compared with the original segmentedContinue reading “Main Display”
