Add support for basic controller #134

Closed geezacoleman closed 3 weeks ago

geezacoleman commented 3 weeks ago

This pull request adds support for a basic GPIO-based controller. With three wires it is possible to:

  1. Indicate image data sampling
  2. Memory card status
  3. Toggle detection or image sampling on/off.

Code efficiency for GoB has also been improved to increase FPS up to 48 FPS on a Raspberry Pi 4 running with 416 x 320 resolution frames. This should decrease latency between detection and actuation.
