Re: Confused about Camera

Hm...our team had the same problem over the weekend. We tried for two days to calibrate the camera! With different types of lighting and different target locations. But no luck. With just the floorescent lighting we could get yellow, but none of the other colors. Then with the halogen work light we could get red but none of the other colors. And we could never get green. Arghh..... This doesn't help us since don't you need all the colors calibrated under the same light conditions that you will run your robot in? Well anyways, back to the question. I noticed that you said you only calibrated green and were able to track green. Is this really true? Do you not need to calibrate all the colors if you just want to track one color? Also, were you tracking the color using the demo mode of the camera or the default camera code given on IFI robotics?

Thanks!
