Is the EZ-robot wireless camera Mac compatible? Or are there any other Mac compatible wireless cameras that anyone could recommend for a robot.
Just wondering if I can postpone the inevitable purchase of a Windows machine as my son and I get into this game.
thanks very much Jordan
I guess any mac compatible camera will work, possibly even the EZ-Kit camera (can't test it, I don't have a mac).
Personally, I would bite the bullet. This "game" will get you, a windows box shouldn't be too expensive. Build your own for cheap, pick up Windows 8 upgrade and use it for a new install (it works) as it's cheap at the moment.
@Kreidberg, our camera apparently works with a Mac - but don't quote me on that because I cannot verify. Our software is only windows, so our camera is useless on a Mac
Yup buy you a netbook and dedicate it as a FANCY remote control for you robots.

Actually I've tested the camera in my mac, captures a single frame and then just streams the same frame. As for the software I'd be happy to share one of my ports I've made for mac and iOS
Dux, I'd love to see your port
Well, they're not as advanced as your SDK, but it works for my robot
. The one of iOS only has servo control as I started it this weekend. It requires jailbreaking though
as Apple can only talk with their approved devices or BLE, and your bluetooth module is not BLE, sorry for that
. Anyways here they are
Mac: http://www.mediafire.com/?zr4ogugrylxsds5 The mac version uses MonoMac for GUI, but the underlying library is built on Mono so works on Windows and Linux too.
iOS: http://www.mediafire.com/?ele94a9y8ybz22b For iOS I don't use Xcode, I use theos make system and objective c, if you're willing to jailbreak check it out
.
Just know, they're primitive, I'm not DJ
. But if anyone actually uses it and wants a feature I can add it
