hello,

I am building a robot with the basic stamp. I have a video transmitter
but need a camera. I was wondering if anyone knew where I could find a color
camera for a robot for about $50 US. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
A low Lux level would be nice. Thanks again

Travis

    I dont' have the URL here at home, its in my favorites at work. mini color
    cameras for around 65$... I think the digital color cameras were about
    75-80 ish. I bought one of the mini B&W from that place at 36$ and its got
    a very nice image.

    Travis,
    How are you building the robot?? like how do you determine what pins to
    use, and what program do you use to control it??

    thanks Justin
