HaViMoGUI

[hamid_m offline]

Hi everyone,

before I go to my vacations, I would like to announce the code release of the new calibration program for the HaViMo:

https://sourceforge.net/projects/havimo/

The new client program is a port of the old one into Qt. Some additional features are included:

- camera parameters are now named and can be set with sliders and check boxes.
- parameters are read life from the camera, which is good for using auto exposure and auto white balance.

The program still supports only USB2Dynamixel, but as the next development step I will add an in system support of the module via CM5/510 or robobuilder RBC.


If any developers are interested in collaborating simply write me.

I would be glad to hear your feedback, and more glad if some of you can help me in the development.

Best regards,
Hamid.

Hi everyone,

I'm now back from vacations.
I worked a little bit more on the code and now following is available:

- Calibration and preview of the results using USB2Dynamixel
- Calibration and preview of the results using CM5 (in system calibration)
- Calibration and preview of the results using CM510 (in system calibration)

there is still some communication problems when reading the look up table back in CM5 and CM510 modes.

I also uploaded the binaries for windows, so everyone can easily download and test the program.

Best regards,
Hamid.

Hi hamid, I bought an Havimo 2 camera a few days ago, I downloaded this HavimoGUI but I can't understand it very well. I hope you can tell me wich are the steps to achieve calibration.
Thanks in advance.

I achieve calibration after checking the datasheet of CMOS sensor in Havimo, but I have issues Reading the LUT, when I click it in the program it doesn't work. How can I make it work ?
Thanks in advance.

Hi Luis,

before I can help you , I need to know which hardware setup you are using. Also give more details about which functions work and which don't.

Best regards,
Hamid.

I'm using my CM-510 and USB2Dynamixel for interfacing with the PC and the Camera. Actually everything works well but the buttons "Read LUT", "Load LUT from a File" and "Save LUT in a file" don't do anything. It could be my hardware setup or what do you think ?
Thanks for answer Hamid.

It's my understanding the Load and Save functions haven't been implemented yet while the Read function has some bugs. Hamid is addressing these issues and solutions are hopefully forthcoming soon.

Hi Luis, Hi Harry,

After several bug fixes (With special thanks to Harry for his feedback) the version 0.3 is online now.

I have also uploaded the following tutorial video on HaViMoGUI.

The only bug I am still busy with are the communication errors when reading or writing the LUT via CM5 or CM510. I hope I can also fix this in the next few days.


Best regards,
Hamid.

Hamid,
great video!
We should include it in the product page and wiki

[luisgiii offline]

thanks Hamid! in this new version I can save and load the LUT. Only the "Read Lut" button is still not working with CM-510, hope you can fix this in the future
Thanks.

Do you have a schematic for direct serial connection?

Thanks in advance
