Information needed on Positioning IR Camera (SEN0158)
Vlokkie 2014-05-07 10:40:08 2555 Views2 Replies I need assistance with a Positioning IR Camera please. Googling always just gives me [url=http://www.dfrobot.com/wiki/index.php/Positioning_ir_camera]http://www.dfrobot.com/wiki/index.php/Positioning_ir_camera[/url] which does not have the information. I simply need to know;
How many bites can you request from the camera?
How is it set up; how many rows and columns can it see?
How does the bytes read correspond to the matrix of the camera?
Any information will help. Thanks in advance

I will have a look at that link and see if I can get it to work with this information, else, one expensive gadget in a landfill somewhere :( Vlokkie

Vlokkie 2014-05-08 01:03:02 Hi Vlokkie, I will try to explain you the details.
First, that positioning IR camera is based on the common hack of the WII remote cam and most of the hacks out there are based on that one from a Japanese website: [url=http://translate.google.com/translate?u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.kako.com%2Fneta%2F2008-009%2F2008-009.html&hl=en&ie=UTF-8&sl=ja&tl=en]http://translate.google.com/translate?u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.kako.com%2Fneta%2F2008-009%2F2008-009.html&hl=en&ie=UTF-8&sl=ja&tl=en[/url]
[list]
[*]The camera sends the data via I²C and sends 3 byte per coordinate.
[*]The resolution of the camera is 128x96 pixel, with hardware image processing, which can track four objects (IR emitting or reflecting objects)
[*]The bytes send by I²C represent the coordinate of each detected IR object.
[/list]
I hope this will help you to proceed and if not all your problems are solved then please let me know. lumi
