Connect TWO Camera Boards at the same time

Post by Rocis »

Hi
I'm planning a camera that takes two pictures at the same time: a normal and an IR.

So I intend to connect to my Raspberry Pi Model B:
- a NoIR Board Room - Infrared Camera-sensitive Pid: 1567
and at the same time
- a normal Raspberry Pi Camera Board Pid: 1367.

Please, is it possible to make this connection? Can I take two photos at the same time?
If the answer is negative, please is there any trick to get around it?

Thank you best regards!!

There is only one camera connector on the R Pi. You can't connect two cameras to it.

There are many, many ways to make two computers talk to each other. There is no simple answer to your question. Probably the best way would be to use ethernet.
