[Emc-users] opencv for shape recognition

2014-12-06 Thread Roland Jollivet
Hi Marius I f you don't have an aversion to M$, then have a look at Roborealm.com . It's a very versatile program, and has many interfacing options. You could run it on a second pc and have a serial link to process commands. Also, have a look at this camera. Resolution and colour is quite good. A

OK I got it working and I got the speeds calibrated. Any reason why when I go ccw may speeds are way off? Doubt I will ever go that direction so its not a big deal but it doesn't make any sense. On Dec 6, 2014 2:35 PM, "Peter C. Wallace" wrote: > On Sat, 6 Dec 2014, Jeremy Jones wrote: > > > Date

I had this working fine. Changed some stuff around today but nothing related to my limits. Now every time I home it searches, backs off and finds the limit but then it shuts down because I'm on a limit switch. Thoughts? Also have to switch back to acmxis from gmoccapy to invoke the limit override
