Hey guys anyone have all the improvements for the new cam? also can I remove the IR filter like I did with the very first wireless EZ cam? I am trying to see if it would be beneficial to just have all ez robot equipment in my robot instead of raspberry pi recording as the pi is only recording 7-10 frames at 800x600 at best. So maybe the newer 20fps camera would be better? I don't have any of the new cams to try out or test this if someone cold help a brother out ! I know the old one is 10fps. Thanks.
But something you should do is add the v2 or v1 cam as uart. It will be much faster since you have an onboard pc?

The IR filter can come off, but it is a bit tricky.
If you have a new EZ-Robot camera (where the lens can be adjusted) you can unscrew the lens all the way out and find the glass IR filter at the back side of the lens. You'll then have to squeeze the filter a bit with some pliers to break the glue that holds it in place.
Be forewarned that it's highly likely the lens will break (since it's glass) when you try to remove it so make sure you are 100% certain that you don't want your IR filter any longer.
*Edit: By "new" Camera I'm referring to the v2 Camera (without glued lens)
It's the v2 camera.
