Video cameras

Apr 20, 2005 5 Replies

I was just able to salvage a couple of nice video cameras that were used for recording to a vcr.



Do you guys know of any web sites that deal with getting the video from these onto a computer, so I can play with stereo vision?



I'd like to build the interface myself, so that I have some control over how it works and I don't have a budget to work with, so it needs to be simple to start with.

So you essentially want to build your own frame grabber??

Yeah I realized that after I posted. I've seen the one for the parallel port before. Are there any for USB, that I can build that is?

Of course you don't need a frame grabber to "play with stereo vision". For my efforts I simply put a web cam on a slide to take two images to experiment with.

Google problems meant to post this,

Although not exactly what you want it says it can be used as a basis for connecting a frame grabber,

"This can also form the basis of a simple USB video frame grabber."

There are other sites about using the USB,

All beyond me I am afraid :)
