First person robot fights

If I had the spare cash atm I would totally splash out on a pair of these for a whiteboard or two

Awesome.

I've bought and fitted a camera to the front of BitzaWood, so hoping to get some good 'bot's-eye-view' shots.

They use something like this for Mechwars but its much cheaper; no idea if the quality is the same though. Is there a way to get a Go-Pro to stream out while recording?

[Bodge Job]

i was looking at that, and a few other alternatives as well. there expensive though for quiet bad quality image (when you actuly looks at the resolotio of the screens i would have thought it would be like looking at loads of dots). and i had found a 2.4ghz wireless camera which should have enough range to be used, but that required a screen or laptop so not the easiest thing to use, have no idea where i found it though. would be interesting to fight first person... i had a short range 27mhz camera that i wired up a little robot to and that was pretty cool to drive

I think there are some videos on youtube from the UK champs in 2011 where pressure has an on board camera.

Would be pretty hard to win any fights as you won't be able to see who is coming up behind you !

[firefly1]

or if you are hitting them

[Bodge Job]

maybe a few cameras with wide angle lenses attached would be needed, would be pretty hard to drive other wise.
