Re: Still can't get the camera to track

Even without a gimbal mount, I'd still recommend opening the Two Color Example. The servo control on the panel will update to show the new servo setpoint, but it will work fine without it.

If that example doesn't show video and a good mask, then the problem is either with communications with the camera or camera setup.

Presumably that will work fine, and the next step will be integrating the vision portion of the example into the framework and replacing the gimbal setpoint with an encoder or pot setpoint and changing the loop to control a motor instead of a servo.

Post again with more specific questions/issues. I haven't explained how the example works yet, but if your are going to use it I'll be happy to answer more about it.
