Anyone know if the Pi will work with a Chameleon3 USB3 camera from flir.com? If anyone has computer vision coding experience with a setup like this, pls email me (profile), contract opp potentially.
Apparently that camera is compatible with v4l2 ("video for Linux 2") so it should work just fine on the RPi 4 provided you have the right cable. Here's a thread where some people discuss using it and similar cameras on the ODroid (which would use the same Linux subsystem): https://forum.odroid.com/viewtopic.php?t=6259
I think the Pi4 has a better USB stack, but the Pi3 has some stability problems with USB peripherals. I eventually (with the right boot parameters) got a Pi3 to run OpenCV on a webcam without occasionally locking up; the PiZero still occasionally chokes on a USB sound card for me. It'll probably work, but audio hats (using I2S) or a camera using the dedicated camera bus are more reliable, though more limited than USB peripherals.
