Image Capture

Dec 21, 2003 7 Replies

Can anyone recommend a dev kit that can be used for image capture. Basically I need to be able to capture a colo(u)r frame and calculate the proportion of one particular colo(u)r within the frame. So I guess id be looking at a ccd camera, frame buffer and some sort of processor. The processing wouldn't need to be done in real time. Any ideas would be much appreciated...

If all your looking for is color, the TAOS TCS320 color sensor would be a good bet.

The ADI Blackfin DSP EZ-Kit. They are on special offer at present ($99). It has RGB video inputs.

Hi Franks,

Looks interesting. Have you used it?

No, have not used it. I've seen it in operation at a demonstration from some robot enthusiasts. They had build a robot that chased an orange ball around. It worked pretty well. I wouldn't use it in a professional application though, seems a bit too fragile for that.

I think they do some camera development kits that may be suitable.

Agilent have a range of CMOS image sensors and a development kit. Farnell stock them.
