Hi list,
this is a bit OT but I trust in this list, so I ask here.
I need an USB extender to plug a PS3 Eye webcam to my pc from 5/10 meters (or better more)
Someone have hints or wonderful solutions?
Note that I've used an analog cam with baluns and CAT5 cable with great success (25 meters with no problems - many thanks to David Kirkpatrick for his specs on the thread "Pd/GEM and camera for tracking" Sat, 7 Mar 2009 16:18:41) but for budget and framerate reasons I'm triyng with PS3 Eye and USB
Ciao, Dario
Hello!
you would need an active extension to get this distance with a ps3eye. something like this: http://www.amazon.com/Tripp-Lite-U026-016-Certified-Extension/dp/B0002D6QJO
there are extender which incorporate cat5 cables, but they are quite expensive and the cheaper should do the job, although i didn´t try them out myself.

I use this one. Works fine and is pretty cheap:

Try without an active one first. I once did a radio art piece at Serralves museum with a usb-powered soundcard and FM transmittor with a normal extension, in a vertical pole (7 meters high), we used a 10 meter usb extension we bought on FNAC or something like that.
:) Although at the time we wondered if it would function, (since a lot of sites and I think wikipedia himself states that it would need a power hub in the middle), but it worked.

Keep in mind that the PS3 eye is a USB2 device! So make sure that all your extenders support this, or you will experience huge framedrops ....

Hi,
To get 10m more for a PS3ye we've bought 2x5M of TU2-EX5 (between 10 and 15 €) ( http://www.trendnet.com/langfr/products/proddetail.asp?prod=170_TU2-EX5&... )
We've tried without active link, but it didn't work.
Good luck

Cool, now I know if I use the ps3eye far away, As of today always used the camera at close distances, since I usually pack the computers inside my multitouch tabletops =p.

Hi,
i have 2 USB Range Extenders from ATEN (Model UE-250) which you can use up to 4 times in one row, which means a maximum length of ~= 25m and they work fine for me. So far i used mainly Webcams (Logitech C200/Philipps SPC1330).
On the other Hand i was able to use a rather old Logitech Webcam Chat with 3 usb-cables (just plugs and cords), total length of 8m, without problems... which would be the cheapest solution :)
