Re: Powering the IR detector from +5V instead of 7+ V.
For example...
If you were using the CMU cam, noone would expect you to run a 12V line through a breaker, and then a voltage regulator (to reduce it to 7V or 5V) and then to the CMU cam...
You'd just plug it directly into a PWM port for power.
It is an input after all.
