Re: Camera offset a lot.... odd

This is what we have done...

We setup the light square and level with the robot and camera.
We moved the light and read the readings on the pan/tilt and moved the light until the angles read zero, zero.
We then adjusted the servo horns to align the camera squarely.
We did find that once we did all of that it was off by only 1 degree.

Hope that helps.
