Better CMUcam2 Mount
I was just fixing a bent PWM for the millionth time when I actually looked at the CMUcam itself and realized something. Why the heck is the whole board mounted on the moveable camera mount?! This is big, clumsy, and places the PWMs right infront of the lens. I noticed that the little camera sensor itself can detach from the board, and be plugged in with a 32 pin ribbon cable.
So my question, why don't we mount the board (with all the serial and power connectors on it) to a stable part of the robot, and just the camera (with a ribbon cable link) to the swivel stand itself.. Wouldn't this make much more sense? |
