[Drivers]
Collaboration diagram for sonyevid30:
|
The sonyevid30 driver operates over a direct serial link, not through the P2OS microcontroller's AUX port, as is the normal configuration for ActivMedia robots. You may have to make or buy a cable to connect your camera to a normal serial port. Look here for more information and wiring instructions.
The sonyevid30 driver supports position and velocity control. Position estimates from the camera can be considered accurate, velocity estimates can not.
- Known Issues and Bugs
- Speed and position can not be set simultaneously.
- All angles (and angular speeds) are communicated in radians (rad/s) except the FOV setting in the configuration file.
- No data is returned from a generic request.
- Zoom values are approximate only.
- The D70 model cameras may not function correctly when inverted.
- Compile-time dependencies
- none
- Provides
- Requires
- None

- Configuration file options
- port (string)
- Default: "/dev/ttyS2"
- The serial port to be used.
- fov (float tuple)
- Default depends on detected camera model

- D70: [2.7 48.0]
- D100: [6.6 65.0]
- D30: [4.4 48.8]
- The minimum and maximum fields of view (in degrees), which will depend on the lens(es) you are using.
- Default depends on detected camera model
- movement (integer)
- Default: 0
- Movement mode (?)
