alphapepper, The best camera I had results with on my EZB3 for color recognition, speed, and resolution was my built in laptop camera. ARC also ran better. I realize this option may not be practical for every one. An onboard tablet or PC has advantages. My test was done with a temporary mounting of my laptop to my robot with great results. Steve S
Thanks for the suggestion. I'm looking for something I can mount on the pan/tilt head.
Ive been working on a paintball sentry gun i used a Logitech 1080p webcam hooked up to my laptop
Will it be near your computer and stationary, or do you need wireless. If you can connect via usb to the computer, your options are nearly limitless and inexpensive. Virtually any decent web cam will work, so find one that is the right size for your needs.
Wireless, to achieve decent quality you probably want to look for a WiFi camera that provides a jpeg stream URL. A week or so ago @technopro posted some software that allowed an iPhone or Android phone to be used as a remote camera that worked with ARC, although that would be more difficult to do a pan/tilt mount for.
