No camera data...

Technical Programming

We hooked up the camera and we are using Kevin Watson’s code, and when we try to run the program it shows "No camera data…"

Are there any suggestions that would help us???

There’s a number things to check:

  1. The backup battery is fully chared at 7.2 volts.
  2. The TTL and power cables are attached to the camera and to the RC.
  3. You have the servos in the corrent pwm connectors. (Their defined in tracking.h)

Right now our team is trying to fine tune the camera with our PID method before the robot ships tomorrow. :X

Read the CMUcam workbook on Kevin Watson’s site. If you’ve followed the directions to the letter and it still doesn’t work, see the Camera FAQ:
