Bioloid Vision Module

Hi, hamid_m

Continue to give support HaVimo?

Hi everyone, I'm new to this forum. I tried to rewrite a calibration software, that works similar to Hamid's Camera_Calib.exe. It was a little bit tricky, because calibration also uses non-Robotis-protocol communication. I have still several problems managing the LUT-Programming. I think I have a timing problem in my implementation, because communication often is just broken or I get nonsense ouput. Is there anybody, who works on similar tasks? Is there further information about the LUT available, Hamid?

Thanks a lot for answers

Hi everyone,

got my new cam but I have a problem. This is all i've done :

- turn on cm-5
- run robot terminal
- click on "files" and "transmit files"
- select calib.hex
- close robot terminal
- run camera_calib
- open com port 1

but the camera is not found !!!!

please help me

Oops, I think i made a mistake. I tried to reset the camera with the reset command in the terminal. I managed to check the connection between cm5 and the cam with success (terminal returned the id 100, but the cam was still not found in calib soft). However, there's no more response signal from the cam since i've reseted it.

I guess it's dead right now. sad ...

Hi XTE,

It seems you did not load the flash the CM5 correctly as you would not be able to access the CM5 commands if you did. Please ensure you followed the flash steps illustrated in this thread earlier if you are using a terminal client. I dont think the camera is dead dont panic

Ok so I flashed the firmware properly (got the "r" answer in terminal). Run calib.exe but when I check the camera it is still not found but all the leds on the cm5 suddenly light.

Hi!!

I tryed to connect havimo but "no found"

I made all steps in this thread but not works.

In terminal i get r response, but when i type r, all leds go on.

Proved with serial, usb adapter, uploaded many times and nothing

Well I bought a new cam and this one works fine

However, still have some questions :
- I tried to read the region filter threshold value but I didn't manage to. I would like to decrease this value.
- Tried to download the example.c (tracking program) on the cm-5 but it doesn't work. When should I type "T" ?

Any suggestion ?

Edit: no more problem

do you return your camera?? mine might be damaged?

[XTinX]

I didn't return it. I needed a cam so I bought another one. Maybe we can return them, but I don't even know if it's possible.

Hi everybody,

Sorry for my late reply. Surprisingly I have received no notification that there are new posts in the forum, although I was watching it. I just got informed from Limor as I was fully busy with my team in Robocup German open competitions and this delayed everything for another week.

so far I have sent replies to Renaud and Alejandro. I am wondering if there are also other people having problems with the modules, and if yes, would they please inform me?

Hamid.

It seems that emails were not sent to Hamid or blocked by spam filter every time someone updates this thread. this needs to be checked.
several people did not receive answers the past few months here although I assume they have contacted RoboSavvy by email or phone if the issues persisted. In any case i'll contact them by email to see if they may still need help or their module is indeed defective and needs replacement.

The HaViMo is doing quite well and is still the best robotic vision and object-tracking solution on the market at this pricepoint.

Hi guys, I was wondering can you use the vision module with the AX S1 at the same time (i.e. have the S1 plugged to the CM5 bus and then the vision module plugged to the S1)? Cheers

[limor]

i'm pretty sure it does not have the same "servo ID" as the AXS1

[mpenoushliev]

So, that would be a yes I take it. Thanks a lot
