Developing Wildlife Camera Traps with Zephyr RTOS

Explore the development of wildlife camera traps using Zephyr RTOS in this informative conference talk. Learn how the Arribada Initiative leverages Zephyr to create flexible time-lapse camera solutions for conservation applications, focusing on a deployment in Bermuda to monitor seagrass decay and its impact on marine life. Discover how Zephyr's hardware abstraction and driver APIs simplify peripheral access across multiple vendor SoCs, enabling rapid targeting of different hardware platforms. Gain insights into optimizing constrained embedded devices for size, performance, and battery life, while also addressing challenges associated with cross-platform support. Delve into the practical aspects of creating low-power, portable camera systems adaptable to various project requirements in wildlife and environmental monitoring.
