We are trying to couple them to derive driving and firing solutions, while scanning the camera. We used to do all of that with a Cortex. It seems pretty simple. Maybe we need to go with a different processor. Any thoughts are...

Maybe like oh I don't know say a bottle of beer. The second question...
