Cool CMUcam4 Video

Someone using the CMUcam4 at Carnegie Mellon University! The CMUcam4 is powered by the propeller chip.

Other news: We got the CMUcam4 running at 30 FPS! We haven't finished the firmware for this yet. But, we've been able to do 160x120 @ 30 FPS using the propeller chip running at 96 MHz. By using a 2 core solution (each core does 160x60 interleaved) and with synchronous camera clocking we've achieved the maximum frame rate the camera can handle! At 30 FPS the color tracking is very smooth.

Anyone who has bought the CMUcam4 will be able to do a firmware update to go to 30 FPS.

Thanks,
