hi Jack,
it's about $200 for the "firefly mv". They somehow don't want their prices in public... I had a lower price in mind - maybe I mixed that up with the unibrain. I think for that application it's not necessary using higher frame rates. I tried simple movement detection and tracking in gem, using a low resolution 30fps picture and it was nice to play with, yet at low light.

Hello Martin and thanx for your reply,
In fact, i need a camera to track people in a space (indoor). The
camera will be on the ceiling. There is 5 meters between the ceiling and the floor. With the coordinates of people, i will turn on/off differents lamps
on a statue placed in the center of the space. So i need a camera working on a MacMini with MacOSX.5 and Pd and GEM.
The last MacMini has a FireWire 800 and 5 USB 2.0. I saw the point grey website, but i can't find price on it. However,
they talk about 10 meters cable for FireWire 800. Do you know a model and its price ? Today, I tried a Unibrain Fire-i™ Digital Board Camera and it seems
good (FireWire 400 : 89 euros + 19 euros with lens) But i never tried
it in installation. ++Jack
