Re: New Camera in Budget, What model and why

So you want to stick with IP connected cameras not USB cameras right?

I assume the Microsoft HD camera you tried was USB?
Have you considered Logitech cameras for USB?

Are you hoping for high resolution and field of view for fixed targets
or
Tracking of moving targets which really needs frames per second?

There are plenty of USB2 1080P webcams out there if you want resolution and are not planning on pumping that over the 7MB/s to the driver's station. Once you decide to pump video back to the driver's station you'll be limited in resolution and frame rate. There are multiple ways to reduce the resolution of the video you send back to the driver's station if you can process that video on the robot before it gets there.
