yo bros, I have a problem with interfacing my CMUcam2 (
http://www-2.cs.cmu.edu/~cmucam/cmucam2/index.html). For my project, we were give a biped robot assembly kit from lynxmotion, the CMUcam2 and a 32 servo controller. From the manual, i understand that the ttl ports on the cam is supposed to go to the micro controller which we dun have. Is it possible to connect to the 32 servo controller? The serial port is already used for the servo controller. All our programming is done in visual basic. We have thought of splitting the serial cable into 2, 1 to go to the servo controller and the other to the cam as the instruction sent will be different eg, the servo will accept inputs like #1 p1500 t1000 ,eg while the cam will accept command like tw, tc ,etc. The final product of the robot will be that, it must walk, climb stairs, detect obsticles, track color etc, autonomusly. As we are quite new to the world of robotics, is there any good reference site to recommand? Or any source code in visual basic that we can use? Thanks in advance.
