Hello people. I have been experimenting with an Alaris weeCam (parallel port) which can be had for very low prices on the 'net. I understand that there are quite a few of these cameras around, Earthlink presented new subscribers with these things. I wanted to use this cam on board of a balloon experiment, controlled by a microcontroller) and did quite a bit of work to get the thing working (capturing ECP data, and I did get it to send me pix under Linux). Not being an expert programmer, I'm not sure if I'll be able to write a real backend or a driver for the cam, but if someone is interested, I'll be glad to share the info I have here. Of course, if someone knows more about the cam, or the QV108-02 Alaris controller chip, _I_'d be grateful for the info! Most of what I did is just guesswork. John (This is part of a student project at the University where I teach, and here's a bit of info on what I did with the cam - in Spanish though: http://www.jcoppens.com/univ/circ4/gl4/digicam/weecam.php )
