# Run experimental software on a Hasselblad X2D

Doom and experimental camera extensions run on an original Hasselblad X2D.

## Hardware
Hasselblad X2D 100C, firmware 4.2.0

Custom camera software runs on an original Hasselblad X2D, with a Doom demonstration and exploration of additional on-device functions.

## Shopping list

Parts for one build. Reuse equipment you already own. Quantities are planning quantities unless the creator explicitly specifies a count; kit contents are not additional purchases.

Quantities are for one build. Unless marked source-specified, they are planning quantities; confirm kit contents and the chosen configuration before ordering.

### Confirm before buying
- Public source does not contain a complete current camera-deployment backend. A complete hardware list still does not make this a reproducible one-click mod.

Source reviewed, not assembled or hands-on tested. A working product page does not confirm stock, firmware compatibility or a complete build.

## Setup
Supervised experiment

## Coding tool
Codex

## How the agent helped
The creator credits Codex throughout firmware research and software development for the original X2D 100C on firmware 4.2.0. Public material does not include every component needed for deployment.

## Before you build
Firmware research carries warranty and recovery risks. Current public source does not include a complete camera-deployment backend; separate extensions count as one project.
