Audio Record And Playback
The enhanced features included in STV0680B-003
allow audio memos to be recorded, stored in
SDRAM, and uploaded to the PC over USB or
RS232, to be played back using an OEM software
application developed using the SDK
With the addition of playback hardware, recorded
audio sounds can also be played back on the
camera, and it is possible to download a set of
custom sounds from the PC to allow (e.g.) shutter
鈥淐lick-Whirr鈥? or for a 鈥淭alking Camera鈥? This has
