Hi Will,

I found a high resolution security camera (called out as 1080) (WiFi) which has the camera portion mounted to a ribbon about 4" long. The camera is about the same size as the sensor camera on the Omron P2. I can get a picture or info to you if you feel this may be what you are looking for. I originally planned on using it for Antonn.

@Andy Roid... Problem is the max resolution in the ARC camera control is 640x480 so no where near 1080p... Will already has a 1080p usb camera. What I think he wants to do is use it in ARC at the resolution of 1080p...

I thought due to the limit with the EZB, that he needed a second camera, just for monitoring what Alan sees, and display on a screen. I realize the EZB camera is for processing, not for visual. The design of this camera, having the actual camera head, on a thin cable, would allow it to be mounted in a very tight space. He is looking at two issues here.

Does the 1080p camera need to do tracking of any image processing?

Its my understanding that it is indeed doing tracking, emotion and gender detection. But, its also being projected on a 1080 tv. So the people can see what Alan sees.

They are dealing with this part of the software. So they will have to figure it out the hard way, if the overhead will be too much to detect at 1080.

I'm getting the 1080 camera installed today.

Can you use two cameras? EZ Robot camera for image processing and the higher res camera for sight? Just thinking.

I'm still not certain what the request is. Are you asking for ARC to process 1080p video?

@DJ,

The post was asking the question if ARC uses the full resolution of the camera chosen. I only saw 640 using a 1080 camera.

I understand now that the overhead is too high to process 1080 frames.

They (client) think the higher the resolution the easier for the camera to see an object clearly.

@Dave, I made that suggestion, they are thinking on how to install one.
