Project Gigapixel is a DIY "medium format" camera built by reverse engineering epson scanner sensors capable of capturing up to 80k x 40k px (3.2GP) 16b images with multiple sensor resolution modes.
Using a raspberry pi 5 with piolib to directly control the CCD interface and capture lines to a C++ / Qt application.
