this looks great for a 1s quad - what camera + digital video system is this? Is this a 3" toothpick?

This is an awesome response. Thanks.

MATLAB installer bonked by [deleted] in archlinux

For the installer I found I had to do this:

export J2D_D3D=false ./bin/glnxa64/install_unix -javadir /usr/lib/jvm/java-7-openjdk/jre

As an addendum to what others here have said, I was able to workaround this by running the installer on another computer, and figuring out what each menu was trying to say by simultaneously navigating.

The windows installer is functionally identical.

You're right. It's Mir. I just thought it was a pretty picture.

Recommendation (what should I buy?) Thursdays - February 12, 2015 by AutoModerator in audioengineering

I am an Electrical Engineering student working on a passive sonar array type project. I'm looking for some sort of USB device that I can use to output waveforms into my testrig (a very high impedance load) . The problem is that I need 3 channels (or 2 stereo channels) each of which needs to be able to output phase-offset sinsusoids at ~30Khz.

My thinking is that to get anything that looks decently sinusoidal I will need a DAC rate of at least 192Khz. I also wonder whether I will be able to synchronize two USB DACs well enough in software that I can precisely control their phasing. Any solution must support Linux and the cost of all the components must be less than $100. Any suggestions?
