Guest $RiAz$ Posted January 28, 2006 Report Posted January 28, 2006 ???I have been building a remote controlled car at home and want to add a camera to it that i can view wirelessley from my computer screen. can anyone please give me some advice on how to connect a ccd to give a digital output that could be transmitted to a reicever on my computer.p.s. if anyone can provide a circuit diagram or relevant websites please let me know. thanks, riaz Quote
MP Posted January 28, 2006 Report Posted January 28, 2006 Search for X10 cameras. This might give you a start or some ideas.MP Quote
Guest $RiAz$ Posted January 29, 2006 Report Posted January 29, 2006 this diagram is pretty much all i could find for ccd circuits can anyone tell me if it is a suitable/unsuitable circuit for the task? PLEASE!!! any help on this matter would be brilliant riaz :P"the world around me drops away, created and destroyed by my imagination" Quote
audioguru Posted January 29, 2006 Report Posted January 29, 2006 The circuit you posted has nothing to do with converting the analog output of a CCD camera to digital. It also has nothing to do with transmitting or receiving the signal. Quote
Guest $RiAz$ Posted January 29, 2006 Report Posted January 29, 2006 can you shed any light on the matter? (pardon the pun) Quote
audioguru Posted January 29, 2006 Report Posted January 29, 2006 Start with describing what is the output of your camera. Is it a SVGA pc camera?Have you decided on a transmitter and receiver frequency, RF power, battery voltage and circuits? Quote
Guest $RiAz$ Posted January 31, 2006 Report Posted January 31, 2006 i am hoping to take the ccd chip out of a mobile phone and run it off a battery of 1.5V, transmitting the signal at about 2.4GHz Quote
audioguru Posted January 31, 2006 Report Posted January 31, 2006 I don't know how you are going to desolder the CCD chip's many tiny close-together pins.I don't know where you are going to find its many support chips, and info about them.I don't know how you are going to make a link that works at microwave frequencies.Good luck.

Guest $RiAz$ Posted January 31, 2006 Report Posted January 31, 2006 gee thanks real constructive!!! ;) Quote

Guest $RiAz$ Posted January 31, 2006 Report Posted January 31, 2006 get to the top and put people down?? ;Dgreat philosophy Quote
audioguru Posted January 31, 2006 Report Posted January 31, 2006 I'm not putting you down. I'm saying that your project sounds to be extremely difficult if not impossible to do.I have some scrapped cell phones and their parts are extremely tiny and would be very difficult to remove. Most of the ICs are custom-made for them so information about them is not available. Most nubees can't make an FM transmitter work at only 100MHz and you want a frequency that is 24 times higher. Designing and building a receiver that operates at 2.4GHz would be a nightmare. Quote
trigger Posted February 1, 2006 Report Posted February 1, 2006 Agree to audioguru. RF never been easy. Also many parts in cellphone already be BGA type ICs with unknown pinouts, no way for home builder to disassemble and using... ::) Quote
