CamX project - what's it all about?
Martin Endres tells about the CamX project:
CamX can be described as "object oriented, modular data manager with alarm / timing system".
- CamX is NOT a MIDI/Audio sequencer, even if it can be used as such.
- CamX is NOT a video editing system, even if it can be used as such.
- CamX is NOT a automatic radiator control, even if it can be used as such.
- CamX is completely modular and can be adapted to your individual needs.
- Data/Structure Objects
There are "Data Objects" (e.g. samples, videos or MIDI events) and "Structure Objects"
(e.g. songs or tracks). These "Objects" own individual input and output ports and can
be controlled by their individual addresses. "Data Objects" can be included in the
system in any way you want.
- Ports with Pipeline
These object ports have a pipeline, where any data processing modules (e.g. filter)
can be added.
- Object Database
CamX has a database language, which can be used e.g. for selecting all MIDI events.
- External System Control
All system functions can be controlled externally, and are available for other programms.
So CamX can also be controlled by network / internet. The processing
modules can be distributed in the network.
- Object Editors
Editors are added as modules. Depending on the object type, the correct editor is opened.
An unlimited number of editors can be open simultaneously.
- GUI
The GUI / interface is modular, and can be changed and adapted anytime.
- I/O System
As I/O system, the ARTAS system by ACT will be employed.
Some example uses:
MIDI/Audio Sequencer - Video Editing System - Laser/Slideshow -
Controlling household and office devices - controlling of HiFi/multimedia devices -
DVD/MP3 player
Everything (soft- and hardware) sending or recieving data in any
form will be controllable by CamX, if the driver module is available.
