> To maximize Photon's battery life I tried to make the hardware do the absolute minimum to record imagery. To that end, Photon stores images on an unformatted SD card (ie one huge linear array of bytes) which is easy and fast to index into.
Hmm, what about a dongle that connects between the camera and computer? The dongle wouldn't have to worry about battery life because it'd have USB power. It could do the translation to mass-storage in hardware so the computer wouldn't have to be running macOS.
