How do you hook up the camera?
How do you *exactly* connect the camera to the board, there must be some type of input you need to hook it up to. And then how do you connect it to the Computer with and without the controller board. We have the servos and stuff already mounted.
My team and I find the instructions in other places confusing and I dont want to plug in the power through the wrong place -_- Thanks in advance. |

Re: How do you hook up the camera?
That helps some... where does the TTL on the R232 go? into the TTL of the camera board?
And how do you hook it up to calibrate it and/or on the robot? |

Re: How do you hook up the camera?
How do I hook up the camera exactly ? Do I connect it directly to the servos or should I connect the servos to the RC ? should I allow the camera to be move by a servo left and right or should I try to mount it without a servo and let the robot motors control it's left-right movement? what is the best way to do this?
Does it make sense to connect the servos header from the CMUCam into the RC analog inputs and send the signal to the servos using the PWM outputs on the RC so i control and monitor the camera's movement? Please help me, I'm really confused . ![]() |

There are two different ways we hookup the CMU camera: 1) to a PC to run the CMU GUI to get the calibration numbers and to test the camera. At the regional events the FIRST staff will give you the calibration numbers. These numbers have to be typed into the CMU camera code (v2.4). The GUI is in the IFI Robotics download http://www.ifirobotics.com/docs/cmuc...-software1.zip You'll find the GUI under the folders Software\CMUcam2GUI_fe\stand_alone and is called CMUcam2GUI_fe.jar 2) to the RC to drive the robot. You cannot have the camera hooked up to both the PC and the RC at the same time or it just won't work. Last edited by Mark McLeod : 13-02-2005 at 13:15. |
