Re: Wiring two cameras
To the first team that successfully enables two CMUcamIIs on their robot and uses the PIC microprocessor in the IFI robot controller to compute the stereo correlation from the two camera images to determine range to the designated target, within the time limits of the autonomous period, I will personally award six dozen Krispy Kreme donuts.

Yes, it is physically and electrically possible to connect multiple CMUcams to the RC. But once you do, what are you going to do with the data?
