Exclamation Urgent CMUCAM question
We're well aware that we're pushing the clock here, but we have kinda put the CMUCAM on the backburner until now. We don't know what to do basically. We need some major help. All rookie team 0 experienced programmers. We're using the default code 2.4 from ifirobotics.com, the one wiht default camera code with it. The CMU cam is hooked up to the 2 servo motors, and i can get it to work in demo mode just fine. But when it's hooked up to our bot, it doesn't do anything. So my questions are:

With the default code, how much is already set up for us? What do we have to modify or add to get the camera tracking a color? It seems like the code is already set up so that the bot will interpret where the color is and will drive towards it. We really need to get this up and running today, lol, obviously. I need some serious help, I'm stumped. Is it something with programming or is my hardware bad? thank you for your help and time.
