camera support?

[sidorares]

would be nice to have api to access a camera. Not sure if firmware supports live data transfer ( still or video) but at least "grab a picture and save it" api. Happy to submit a code if anyone managed to document / dump camera commands.

Any luck @bpyser or @johnelliott? I was working on this as well as swarm at JSConf.

I have swarm done, polishing it up right now..

Camera is next on my punchlist.

Ben was looking at it today. I think he has taken images, but we haven't gotten any off. He was using a bluetooth logger on android to capture what was happening when photos are taken using the FreeFlight3 phone app.

I am playing with the idea of an in-browser ground control station to take in the images if we can get them coming in over bluetooth. This may be a good way to control swarms too.

Update: round-trip with sockets is almost instant. I have WASD HJKL -+ [] f and g mapped and just did a flip. I love this library :+1:

Just wondering if any progress has been made on this feature.

[johnelliott]

@rashedtalukder I haven't heard anything. There seems to be more activity overall on the manufacturer site: http://forum.developer.parrot.com/c/drone-sdk/rolling-spider but not specifically related. We haven't really done anything with the rolling spider at Social Tables for a bit :/

[rashedtalukder]

@johnelliott that's too bad. I replied in this thread asking for more details from Parrot on making the call to capture and retrieve the image from the device, but I haven't gotten a reply from them. I'd love it if this could be made to work =/
