Hi,

My main question is: Can the EZ builder embedded C# script read camera data from the wireless camera I purchased?

If so, I'll give my left little finger to anyone who can provide me with a sample C# script that does not require MS developer studio or any other complex program beyond the ARC scripting languages that does the equivalent of the C# "Tutorial 18 - Follow Motion" script.

I'm trying to give my bot video feedback for my 6 axis robotic arm mounted to the tank chassis to enable it to search for and fetch a tossed object.

I've spent about a month now reading through every post, tutorial, and readme file in the C# SDK and can't find a way to read camera data from the C# script language. The learning curve and expense in MS Developer Studio looks like it would require a career change to write a hello world script.

Here's the follow motion script from the tutorial:

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.ComponentModel;
using System.Data;
using System.Drawing;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Windows.Forms;
using EZ_B;

namespace Tutorial_11___Follow_Red_Object {

  public partial class Form1 : Form {

    EZCommunicator _ezb = new EZCommunicator();

    public Form1() {

      InitializeComponent();

      comboBox1.Items.Clear();
      foreach (DirectX.Capture.VideoCaptureDevice videoCaptureDevice in _ezb.Camera.GetVideoCaptureDeviceList())
        comboBox1.Items.Add(videoCaptureDevice.Name);

      comboBox2.Items.Clear();
      comboBox2.Items.AddRange(_ezb.GetAvailableCommunicationPorts().ToArray());

      comboBox3.Items.Clear();
      foreach (Camera.ColorEnum item in Enum.GetValues(typeof(Camera.ColorEnum)))
        comboBox3.Items.Add(item);

      comboBox3.SelectedIndex = 0;

      timer1.Interval = 200;
      timer1.Enabled = true;
    }

    private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e) {

      if (_ezb.IsConnected) {

        _ezb.Disconnect();
      } else {

        if (comboBox2.SelectedItem == null)
          _ezb.AutoConnect();
        else
          _ezb.Connect(comboBox2.SelectedItem.ToString());
      }

      if (_ezb.IsConnected) {

        button1.Text = "Disconnect";

        _ezb.Servo.SetServoPosition(Servo.ServoPortEnum.RB3, Servo.SERVO_CENTER);
      } else {

        button1.Text = "Connect";
      }
    }

    private void comboBox1_SelectedIndexChanged(object sender, EventArgs e) {

      string videoCaptureDeviceName = comboBox1.SelectedItem.ToString();

      _ezb.Camera.StartCamera(_ezb.Camera.GetVideoCaptureDevicebyName(videoCaptureDeviceName), panel1, panel2);
    }

    private void button2_Click(object sender, EventArgs e) {

      _ezb.ShowDebugWindow();
    }

    private void Form1_FormClosing(object sender, FormClosingEventArgs e) {

      if (_ezb.IsConnected)
        _ezb.Servo.ReleaseAllServos();

      _ezb.Camera.StopCamera();
    }

    private void timer1_Tick(object sender, EventArgs e) {

      if (!_ezb.Camera.IsActive)
        return;

      Camera.ColorEnum color          = (Camera.ColorEnum)comboBox3.SelectedItem;
      ObjectLocation   objectLocation = _ezb.Camera.GetObjectLocation(
                                          color, 
                                          Camera.SearchObjectSize.Med, 
                                          (byte)trackBar1.Value);

      if (!objectLocation.isFound)
        return;

      if (_ezb.IsConnected) {

        int position = _ezb.Servo.GetServoPosition(Servo.ServoPortEnum.RB3);

        if (objectLocation.horizontalLocation == ObjectLocation.HorizontalLocationEnum.Left)
          position++;
        else if (objectLocation.horizontalLocation == ObjectLocation.HorizontalLocationEnum.Right)
          position--;

        _ezb.Servo.SetServoPosition(Servo.ServoPortEnum.RB3, position);
      }

      string logMsg = string.Format("Object found at {0} {1} ({2}x{3})", 
        objectLocation.horizontalLocation, 
        objectLocation.verticalLocation, 
        objectLocation.FoundX, 
        objectLocation.FoundY);

      tbLog.AppendText(logMsg);
      tbLog.AppendText(Environment.NewLine);
    }
  }
