A mystery-source project by Erik Blankenship and Bakhtiar Mikhak of MediaDudes, with help from Dan Williams. See also XO-editor-dude and Mapmaker Deluxe Edition. Record can record photos, audio, and video.
Description & Goals
Record is the basic rich-media capture activity for the laptop. It lets you capture still images, video, and/or audio. It has a simple interface and works in both laptop and ebook mode. An interface for sharing pictures among multi XOs during a picture-taking session is a hallmark of the Record activity.
Summary
The Record activity provides a simple application for:
- Taking pictures
- Recording video
- Recording audio
- Stop-motion photography See Animation
- Time-lapse photography
- Creating 360 panoramas
- Viewing slide shows
- Annotation and tagging facility
Record stores images and audio in the Journal, from which they can be used by other activities, such as Draw, Write, Etoys, and Browse, as well as Memorize and some other games. Also, images can be transferred to a USB storage device from the Journal by "drag and drop".
Goals
The "Record" activity uses the built in camera and microphone to let children record and share their pictures, videos, and audio files. One of the cool things about sharing on the xo is that it happens effortlessly -- when you take a picture with one XO it shows up on both your and your friends' XOs too. In this way, we envision classrooms of children working together to document their neighborhoods.
Collaboration
The Record activity supports collaboration through both the Invitation mechanism and the Share-with-Neighborhood mechanism. In both cases, the collaboration manifests itself in sharing of still photos. As each participant in the collaboration takes photos, videos, or audios thumbnails of these media appear in the trays of every participant, where they can be saved and viewed. Note that Record does not support real-time sharing of video or audio.

Raw
According to spec sheets for the ccd and the camera controller, both are capable of shooting and capturing in RAW format. I'm not sure what could/should be done with this, but it's a very fascinating possibility.
