A programmable 360 degree camera, the RICOH THETA, normally runs Android internally, now more available to Linux by installing and running open source Termux.
This article is about running a Linux environment inside the RICOH THETA 360 degree programmable camera.
RICOH THETA uses Android as the OS. You can also customize THETA as if you were making an Android application. The customization function is called a “plug-in."
You can install an Android app that uses adb shell inside the THETA. This provides a Linux user experience with standard tools like ssh, apt, git, wget, etc. Multilingual development is possible. No root is required. It is easy to switch between the two environments, enabling THETA computing. It’s much quicker to go from idea to prototyping. This makes the THETA suitable for hackathons.
