Example text
Since a motor can draw a lot of power (for example 1A or more), connecting digital outputs directly to a motor can destroy the microcontroller. A typical power amplifier chip containing two separate amplifiers is L293D from ST SGS-Thomson. 5 demonstrates the schematics. The two inputs x and y are needed to switch the input voltage, so one of them has to be “+”, the other has to be “–”. Since they are electrically decoupled from the motor, x and y can be directly linked to digital outputs of the microcontroller.
13 shows the EyeCam camera module that is used with the EyeBot embedded controller. EyeCam C2 has in addition to the digital output port also an analog grayscale video output port, which can be used for fast camera lens focusing or for analog video recording, for example for demonstration purposes. In the following, we will discuss camera hardware interfaces and system software. Image processing routines for user applications are presented in Chapter 17. 1 Camera Sensor Hardware In recent years we have experienced a shift in camera sensor technology.
This requires additional, faster hardware components for our embedded vision system just to keep up with the camera transfer rate. The achievable frame rate will drop to a few frames per second with no other benefits, since we would not have the memory space to store these high-resolution images, let alone the processor speed to apply typical image processing algorithms to them. 13 shows the EyeCam camera module that is used with the EyeBot embedded controller.
