Hi
I have been experimenting with a old Gameboy camera for quite some time (for use in a robot-soccer application) and still have not quite got it working. I am using a PIC 16F876 and was initially planning to simply use the onboard ADC to read the voltage from the camera and dump it to the serial port. However this process is relitively slow which I think is where the problem lies - can someone tell me if there is a maximum time the camera 'holds' the image before it must be read (i.e. before it 'fades' in it's memory)? The first 1/4 of the picture seems OK-ish but the rest just turns grey. As I mentioned, the reading process is not that quick as I currently have no external RAM to store the image in. Is this what I'm doing wrong?!
Thanks!
