Question about the Making a step to stereo vision article

[kirstom14]

Hi,

I am trying to mount the cameras, but I am having some difficulty.
I cannot get the laser dot on both camera screen properly. Do you have
any tips on how I can do this, as I am thinking that I have some problems
with the webcams themselves. I am like seeing cross-eyed!! I have
mounted the webcams parallel to each other. Can the problem be as
I stated before the webcams??

What can I do?

Thanks for your help

Hello,

First make sure you have 2 cameras of the same model/manufacturer. The mount them on the same line and make sure their view axes are parallel. If they provide any type of focusing mechanism - make sure settings are set similar. Other than that it is hard to advice.

It is much simple just to get Minoru 3D web camera - 2-in-1 set.
