We are working on a project to baseline power consumption for a smart camera that can be configured for passive stereo vision or IR+visible multi-spectral.  The design does most of the frame by frame processing in an FPGA, but we plan to integrate a TI-OMAP running embedded Linux to integrate some machine learning algorithms we want to test along with just basic network uplink and management interface - the camera will be dropped off in locations in the Arctic, so very power constrained.  Just curious what sort of lifetimes people are seeing with Beagle Juice and how well the batteries work, lifetime, etc.  Also, has anyone used solar charging? (Not a great option in the Arctic in winter of course).
