TTL Serial Camera

[NEHAD]

Dear adafruit,

I'm trying to make the TTL Serial Camera project. But my camera is different from the camera you used. Here is the images of the camera:

I made every step of your project page, but when I run the arduino serial monitor of the snapshot code...> It says that No camera found.
The same thing happened when using the VC0706 COMM TOOL, when I click on Get Version....> It says Cmd Time Out.
So, I think the camera is not compatible.
Is there any suggestions i can make in the code or in my connections to fix that problem.

Thanks in Advance.

Regards,
Nehad

You'll need to talk to the vendor who sold you the camera and see what information they have. There are lots of different camera modules, and we only know the VC0706.

I've succeeded to make the Comm Tool works. It worked with Baudrate 115200, but when I uploaded the snapshot code to the arduino and changing the Baudrate as the Comm tool, the serial monitor was empty. It told me No camera found at Baudrate 9600.
Any suggestions?

Thanks

Hi,
I use the adafruit VC0706 cam in a project "Time lapse cam" and as "Weather cam". But I have one problem: The colors of the cam are not ok. I miss a better green value. The value is to small. How can I increase the value. Maybe in the sketch.

The Weatherproof Camera (https://www.adafruit.com/product/613) uses a ring of IR LEDs for night vision, so it doesn't have an IR filter on the lens.

Images that include IR data can look washed-out compared to visible-light images. Try putting an IR filter in front of the lens and see if that helps.

Hi, I use product 397 without IR ring.

Try an IR filter anyway, to see if it helps.

You can also try using the CommTool (linked from the tutorial: https://learn.adafruit.com/ttl-serial-c ... -comm-tool) to work with the white-balance settings.
