CMU Cam servo jitter
When I hooked our CMUCam2 up to my PC for testing, both the pan and tilt servos "jittered" constantly. Kind of like they couldn't decide on what the exact center position was and were constantly switching between two positions.
I am using an external wall-wart type supply that supplies 12V and 500mah. The jumper for "use internal power to servos" is on. Is anybody else experiencing this? In RC airplanes we will occasionally see jitter like this when using a fully charged 6.0v battery and it will continue until the voltage has dropped off a little, but I am assuming that power for the servos in this case is regulated to 5v, so it should not be an issue. Thanks, Adam |
