Hey whoever made a similiar account to mine
I found this just now
"In order to initially test your CMUcam2, you will need a serial cable, a power
adapter and a computer. The CMUcam2 can use a power supply which produces
anywhere from 6 to 15 volts of DC power capable of supplying at least
200mA of current. This can be provided by either an AC adapter (possibly
included) or a battery supply. These should be available at any local electronics
store. The serial cable should have been provided with your CMUcam2.
Make sure that you have the CMOS sensor board connected to the CMUcam2
board so that it is in the same orientation as the picture shows on the cover of
this manual."
