pan & tilt errors

itzrobz · #1 18-02-2006, 10:45

Pan Error : 24
Tilt Error : 104

Can anyone help us make it so that the error is is closer to 0 and not 104?

Thanks

Set the value closer to zero in the code or if you have the "bells and whistle" version use the tracking menu (press t in the command prompt from IFI loader)

Are you sure the camera is locked on with those values? In tracking.c the algorithm uses the maximum number of pixels between the camera center and the target center as:

Code:

#define PAN_ALLOWABLE_ERROR_DEFAULT 6
#define TILT_ALLOWABLE_ERROR_DEFAULT 6

So anything higher than an error of 6 should mean the camera is not locked on to the target in the Servo_Track() function.
