Stereo vision at last!
Running identical webcams simultaneously on the same computer
 
Stereo vision at last!

At last after months of searching the web and asking on newsgroups I've finally managed to get Rodney's two quickcams running at the same time and on the same computer. This may not seem like much, but for me I think this is a significant breakthrough, which should permit some interesting new experiments.

Check out the demo on http://www.fuzzgun.btinternet.co.uk/rodney/vision.htm

In the pipeline are plans for the next version of the Rodney robot, and this may eventually use firewire webcams so that I can get a higher frame rate at large resolutions and without the noise which results from video compression algorithms. Firewire cameras should work with the same WDM system which I've developed already.
