I just want it to simply be able to see my face and objects. I almost for sure am going to have to modify the robots head/neck though. I am pretty sure my eco only can move its head left and right. Will have to look into how to make it go up and down as well. Anyone have an idea what the camera looks like without the case? After studying my robots head online there is very very very little room in there.

I know DJ showed a picture of just the camera board without the case a few months ago. I tried to do a quick search but came up empty. You or someone with more time may be able to find it. I know it here somewhere.

While I was searching around for the camera I did find where DJ said that the V4 EZB would have 3 processors. One would be dedicated to the V4 camera that will attach directly to the EZB : "One 80Mhz 32-Bit STM32F3 Arm Processor runs the EZ-Robot Camera"

@rryerson , is the camera your using the one I sent you? I was wondering if it arrived OK. I have tried to contact you to see if it had arrived and how you like it but I've not received a reply. Sorry it's not performing as you had hoped. I hope you don't feel it's the camera and I sold you a clinker. If so let's talk. I also experienced the lag and found it to be unacceptable as I was truing to use it for object tracking. There were many discussions on the forum about getting the tracking to work better but I just couldn't make it work for my application. Others here were having better luck and actually had it working good. I thought it was just me or the way I was trying to use it.

Dave... actually I did relpy... guess the email got lost... Anyway the camera is fine and my disappointment is not with you (camera works as you said it would)... Just that the frame rate is too slow to use in my project...Sorry, again my disappointment is not directed at you whatsoever my friend....edit... I also am having trouble with the tracking ability.... Fingers crossed that Ezb4 addresses this too...

I'm glad we're OK. Sorry I missed your reply. I had a computer melt down a few days ago and lost all my saved emails all the way back to 2011. Yours must have been in that lot.

Hope you find your troubles are over with the v4. I'll be trying my luck with tracking on the V4 and it's camera also. If that doesn't work Tony (Toymaker) has given me a few ideas and some hardware that may work better. Cant wait to bet back to work on B9!

i found this plug.looks like its for a camera. discounts

I am at a delimna pver this camera thing. I don't want to only have the option of the ez one if I can't make it fit where I need it to go when there are very small ones on the market.

you can find on ebay many mini cams.

dj is jd head comming out whit the new camera instalt.

I swore DJ said the ezbv4 only works with their camera. That's my concern
