One of the most important part of the project is the enclosure desgin. The enclosure should allowed to place and replace the custom filter, and assemble different sensor arrays (2x1, 3x1 , etc.)

Our solution is a modular design which has a detachable front lid to place the filter between the CMOS sensor and the lens.

For assembling the modules in an array, each camera has four strong magnets in each side, and a dip connector to synchronize the trigger and data.

In the back lid it has a power button, micro SD card slot, micro USB connector and a dip connector for accessing the controller .

The 3d design was done in Solidworks and will be 3d printed for testing.
