Change Release Notes

Sometimes... Something strange happens in my head... Something pops in and says "Dude, try this".

If that voice/vision wasn't telling me how to make EZ-Robot any better, then I would be alarmed.

In this case, we are all safe! Over the past while, I had been considering a few options to increase the tracking speed and response of the Camera Control. I would try something, and it would partially work. I would try something else, and it would break. Last night, something clicked!

This release increases the response of the camera control with the EZ-Robot Wireless Camera. It also decreases the CPU usage! A few new features have been added, including an adjustable framerate. The underlying Control framework has been rewritten, thanks to a lengthy plane ride today.

I hope you enjoy these new enhancements:)

  • Smoother camera control video and uses less resources

  • Super fast video response with ez-robot wireless camera

  • Adjustable capture speed framerate

  • Windows 8 fix with closing some controls on slower AMD processors

  • Camera control initializes all user defined variables when control is loaded

  • JPEG Streaming bug fix in Camera Control when viewing an image by an HTTP:// source

  • Floor map turn resolution increased

  • Another attempt at preventing controls from creeping on low resolution displays

  • Sleep() EZ-Script command has increased resolution

  • Fixed some EZ-Script manual entries
