I posted this originally in another thread, except the X and Y axis were reversed. When I saw the IFI document the output was not to scale so I assumed the X axis is the wide axis, which apparently is not true. Attached is a win32 app for version 2.0 of the .NET framework which will display the centroid and bounding box from the camera on a PC. You can substitute the error values for the bounding box coordinates to show the region where the centroid can stay before the servos move. If I have some time tonight I'll add the error area as another layer. The camera output will also be available in an updated dashboard program that I'll post once its been tested.

Version 2.0 of the .NET Framework can be downloaded here:

Visual C# 2005 Express Edition (version 2.0 of the framework has native serial port support in the System.IO.Ports namespace) is FREE until November 2006 and is a very nice IDE for windows development. They're also giving away the MSDN library documentation and SQL Server 2005 desktop edition. It can be downloaded here:
