We've added another tutorial to our growing reference library: "VOXL 2 + FLIR Hadron Integration"

@ModalAI has come out with documentation for VOXL 2 + @FLIR Hadron 640R+ integration. We were able to get our hands on the boards and cables (from ModalAI) for this powerful integration.

https://t.co/AwRtshqRJB

Watch as we:

- Setup voxl-camera-server to expose the cameras
- Setup adb forwarding to access voxl-portal
- View the Hadron's thermal video over RTSP stream

Looking forward to integrating more Hadrons onto VOXL 2 UAVs.

Guess who won the company costume contest

[Savage Robots @goods_savage8]

So far Jetson TX2 and AMD Kv260 in the 12U cabinet ✔️

The rack PDU works well. Need a rack mount network switch still. VOXL2 will be the next board.

Improving cable management is always an ongoing effort…
