I haven't tied this, but would like to. > > Obviously, this won't be to everyone's taste, and there's precious little commonality among cameras (although the flex-mounted Omnivision cameras exist in various resolutions in the same package - maybe they're candidates? (although data isn't freely available, it does exist). > > Discuss, or I'll do what I fancy :) Might be interesting to have two cameras so we can do stereoscopic vision, but I have not looked anything on that line and possibly needs further discussion. --  Héctor Orón  -.. . -... .. .- -.   -.. . ...- . .-.. --- .--. . .-. -- Would you like to make a donation for Debian Conference?    ** http://debconf11.debconf.org/payments.xhtml **
