The things lions do to only pay $2000 in rent.  While water is off for 6 days every year, it hasn't been for more than 12 hours at a time.


The lion kingdom distinctly remembers the water being off for several days in 1984, not knowing when it would come back on, looking around the complex for signs that a repair was coming after a few days, but seeing nothing.  It was not a single day outage.  There were distinctly water containers in the kitchen & we drove back to the house for showers.  


That phase of marital difficulty happened when the old man was 42.  His peak marrital difficulties spanned age 38 - 45 or 1980-1987.  Those days spawned beliefs that the grass was greener in other marriages, but it wasn't true.


It's manely relevant to the lion kingdom because lions experienced no such difficulties from age 38-45.  Comparatively, lions had a very low stress time.  It's believed a lion marriage would have been equally as difficult & fallen apart because friction tends to be required for animals to hook up.  A lion would not be attracted to anyone who stayed in an abusive marriage.

A program designed to do off camera stabilization of footage which has gyro metadata.  The mane advantage with this is it can look farther ahead at higher resolution than the camera can with its own memory.  A 60fps or a 2.7k video could get a lot more stabilization.  If stabilization is done offline, the HDMI from the camera won't lag.  It can be used for object tracking.  The neural network would have to be retrained for the lower camera angle.


The mane disadvantage is it doesn't have access to the full sensor area like the camera does, so the video is either going to be cropped again or have black borders.  There's no way to export the overscanning area from the gopro 7.  It exports the same resolution for stabilized & unstabilized modes.  


There is the possibility of capturing gyro data on a home made board & synchronizing it with a camera with no stabilization.  The lion kingdom's Gear 360 could be hacked back to life.  The key is synchronizing the gyro data.  The way they do it is by matching just the gyro vectors in a spreadsheet with motion vectors in the video.  Guys record a video on an action cam which also records gyro data or they record the flight control data in their quad copter.  The video from the action cam isn't used for synchronization.


A hacked Gear 360 could do lion tracking & timelapse off line.  The mane problem is it's heavier.  Although gyroflow supports cameras with the word 360, it doesn't support the 2 lens cameras that were popular 5 years ago.  For animals with a lot of money, Insta360 has replaced gopro in the small form factor market but only the single lens cameras are supported.  

The easiest logging of gyro data would be on an AT90USB Key from 15 years ago with 16MB of flash.  That could also do solar power logging.

There's a gumstix basix 400 with a ripped off SD card port & 8 MB of flash.  

Another gumstix has 32MB of flash.

The day job board has 128MB of flash but burns a lot of power.

Any board needs 2 GPIOs for I2C, a GPIO for a status LED, a GPIO for a power LED, a GPIO for a start switch.
