hi.
I have problem with video from rover camera in ARC. Sorry for bad English, it is not my native language.
First, all was ok. I've connected to robot from EZB, picture was ok, and I ran the robot by office about 10-20 minutes.
Then, after reconnect i saw black screen instead of picture. Motion controls still work fine. I tried to reinstall EZB, reset the robot, tried on another pc - nothing helps. On iphone everything is ok. Even the python script, that grabs jpeg from camera works fine.
I watched traffic between EZB and robot - it seems, that robot sends its video stream, but EZB shows only black screen.
Help me! thanks
You can solve this without firmware hack. You can make server at home, connect it to rover by ad-hoc and simply forward 80 port from rover to external ip address.
My target is to avoid max control distance restriction. We have large office with common, single wi-fi network. It would be cool to travel everywhere :-)
Hi Robot 468 Ok I understand, but how I can connect my server to my rover through my infrastructure wifi network. Sorry i don't understand stress
Without "infrastructure wifi network". You can connect server's wi-fi adapter directly to rover's ad-hoc network. Then server will be able to access rover's control port at 192.168.1.100:80. Then you should forward (by firewall, or another software) this port to external Internet IP address.
@robot468 there is an update to ARC that may fix your brookstone rover video issues. You can find the thread here: https://synthiam.com/Community/Questions/2040
:)
No, the same problem
Sorry to say, there is something wrong with your network, laptop or rover.
Rover, i think. I tried with another laptop. But iphone/ipad client works well. And my self-made script for parsing videostream works too
That's really strange. Are there any messages in the debug window?
Any messages in debug?
