I've never heard about this device before and I just learned about it today as friends pointed out they're kickstarting Arsenal 2 and it looks pretty neat software-wise: http://kck.st/3aX6iKM

I wonder if all camera brands support the same features of if those are brand-dependent as SDK varies across models. Also, if it's all "AI" magic software, it could be embedded (via licensing) into DSLRs or even smartphones... maybe?

The arsenal v1 looks like it's a Linux-based system [1] running on an Allwinner CPU [2].

It seems like (at least in the past) they were using gphoto 2.0 for the actual camera-control parts.

They don't seem to be taking licence compliance very seriously as there's nothing I can find that lists the various software components they're using.
