I'd like to use the 160x120 resolution in my project running ARC (the latest version) for Windows on a Windows 10 Surface Pro 2 but I get the following error:
11/3/2018 11:37:43 AM - Error Camera.SetCaptureImage: AForge.Imaging.UnsupportedImageFormatException: Source pixel format is not supported by the filter. at AForge.Imaging.Filters.BaseTransformationFilter.CheckSourceFormat(PixelFormat pixelFormat) at AForge.Imaging.Filters.BaseTransformationFilter.Apply(BitmapData imageData) at AForge.Imaging.Filters.BaseTransformationFilter.Apply(Bitmap image) at EZ_B.Camera.eihiq5ToKN(Object )
It runs at 320x240 okay but uses a lot of CPU and the image tends to hang or stutter and falls behind when face tracking. Anyone else have issues with the surface pro? The exact same builder file works fine on my laptop (with Windows 7).
Thanks
I've absolutely loved your iRobot artwork since the first time you shared with us two years ago. What a brilliant concept. So cool how you brought it to life.
I never asked or learned (or maybe forgotten) what do you have showing/playing on each cell phone?
Ahh, the cell phones. They have small clips of robots through the ages; starting with the Metropolis robot on the bottom-most phone, then B9 and Robbie on the 2nd. Others include Bender B. Rodriguez and Calculon from Futurama, Bicentennial Man, The Terminator, Data from Star Trek, Wall-E, and many others all the way up through Ex Machina's Ava on the top phone. They are very short, around 20 seconds of each film, and not near the ends of the films so as not to give anything away so I should be safe as far as Copyright infringement.
I have to say, of all the sculptures in the series; this is quickly becoming my favorite.
Amazing talent.
My faves: B9 (of course) Robbie Metropolis Bender Wall-E
Thanks Dave. I like your list. I would add Adam Link as a favorite.
I've taken the camera off and deleted the camera control from the project. We'll see how long the EZB stays connected. I haven't added any load though. I'll start simple and add load later. Can I program a simple head movement once every ten minutes or so? I'll look into that.
The uptime that vertigo and I are referring to isn't disconnect/connect - but the time the EZ-B is actually powered.
View the EZ-B webserver and you will see the UPTIME value on the main page. That's the amount of time it has been online for. You can check to see if the time is less than the amount of time you had the unit connected
Oh, sure thing, DJ, I've seen that value on the webserver. That way I can know for sure if the unit is rebooting or not. However, I've been sitting right next to it when it has disconnected and I didn't hear the chime. And when I try to reconnect it tell me another client is already connected. That's when I have to power down and back up to reconnect.
In any case, it ran all night without disconnecting. No camera or camera commands and no load. I'll try to program in a couple of movements today but I have a feeling it will continue to stay connected with the camera removed. Or did I just jinx it! Lol.
I have that happen from time to time. Can't reproduce it right now. However when it does happen I think it's when I shut down ARC without disconnecting then restart ARC. Can't remember exactly but the important thing is that it's not only you or your setup. Misery loves company. LOL.
That happens when the tcp connection to the ezb disconnects mid command. That’s usually from the WiFi disconnecting.
I created a program for you earlier in this thread that logged icmp. Have you identified the icmp stops responding OR gets very slow at the time of disconnect?
Post some logs
