Thanx Luiz, i know PointGrey and i think (tell me if i'm wrong) the price of these cameras is > 400 euros and i need a camera with a price < 200 euros. Do you know an other site with smaller prices ? ;) If someone has already used a good webcam with Firewire 800 interface, i'm a buyer :) ++

Hello,

I look for a cheap camera (< 200 euros) with a Firewire 800 interface. I would like to use it for fiducial tracking. The camera would be attached to the ceiling and connected (with a 10 m cable) to a Mac Mini. Do you know the existence of such a camera ? Thanx. ++

Hi all,

Jack, did you check the prices? The usb cameras used to be cheap ~ 200 $

jaime, I was thinking about this camera....Can you give more impressions about it? Have you tried to exploit the potential fast response in higher frame rates?

Best

is it really USB 2.0 ? virtually any usb camera i checked advertises itself as USB 2.0, though the few ones i tried are actually using 'only' UHCI (which refers to USB 1.1). i guess, what the USB 2.0 label on those cameras means is the fact, that they are compatible with USB 2.0 capable ports.

in case you are on linux, could you post the relevant past few lines of dmesg after having plugged in the camera? if this is really a USB 2.0 camera, i might be interested in purchasing one.

cheers roman

The camera also works fine on MacOSX with [pix_video] and [pdp_ieee1394] (not tested with [#camera]). My configuration : MacOSX.4.11 Pd version 0.41.4-extended GEM: ver: 0.91.3 'tigital' ++

Thanx Jaime and Frank for informations about the PS3 camera. I have bought one (39 euros) and it works perfectly with [pix_video] and [pdp_v4l2] but not with [#camera] (pd crash). My configuration : Ubuntu 9.04 Pd version 0.41.4-extended GEM: ver: 0.92.CVS

I will try later on MacOSX. ++
