Is Spike Operational?

[Scott Webster]

I realise the body has been machined but have the sensor and electronics been fitted and is the Spike camera capable of recording?

Please allow me to repeat myself...

"We have a combination of test beds. Frankie, Frankie 2, Spike, and boards on a bench. I don't really want to get into the details of what each is doing everyday or what images came from where. I will say that Spike is not full function enabled at this time, nor was it intended to be at this point. We are bringing up different features on different test beds for now. Remember, the goal is to ship early 2007. All is good (today)."

Apologies Jim, I was just getting my head around what the machined Spike represented in your testing program. I, like many others are getting enquiries for future work for the Red and I'm just trying to keep my clients up to date with progress.

I didn't know whether the machined body was for the pupose of installing and testing the sensor or just a prototype body build.

Spike is one of the working tools in our bag of tricks...

High contrast/motion etc... clips ? Will we see some before NAB ?

Thanks.

Appreciate the work.
