Simple Robot with Camera

(1/2) > >>

tarushaggarwal:
i am pretty new to robotics...i have just made a simple line following robot using photoresistors.. Now i want to do the same thing using a camera...
i have a cheap ccd camera which just has the red output port ( normal AV wire port )... Can i use this camera??
if so how will i be able to configure it??
and will i still be able to use the ATMEGA16 that i used for the old robot??
i am totally lost as to how to connect the camera to the microcontroller!!.. Can anyone also suggest a good link where i will be able to learn the programming knowledge i will need to do the same....
Thanks,
Tarush

I recommend just buying a CMUcam or AVRcam (search for both in the forum/web)

i had planned to make a robot with a camera to follow a line..however i live in india and thus do not acess to the avrcam or the Cmucam...therefore i will have to make the development board myslef..
does anyone know how i will be able to this...i have a ccd camera and would prefer to use the atmega16.
i do not need any fancy image processing algo's i just want a very simple algorithm to follow a line.
please can somebody help me?
thanks in advance.

Both the AVRcam and CMUcam are open source and have both schematics and code for you to copy.
