Hey all. I built a tank rover based off a design on Makerbot's Thingiverse (
http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:39845).
I soldered leads onto the UART on the board so that I can run the serial connections to an Arduino. The Arduino runs a pair of Poplolu stepper motor drivers (L&R) which control the motors which turn the tank treads. The camera that they originally used was a 3 yr old Foscam knockoff. They modified the WebUI to include a special webpage and JavaScript file to convert key strokes into camera movements and serial commands which activated the tank treads. This is the original hack:
http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:13496So all of the firmware is obviously different with the new F19821W V2. A gentleman named Mnemonic on this board decompressed the new firmware for this camera using OpenSSL and posted the result here:
http://www.openipcam.com/forum/index.php/topic,687.0.htmlI'm going to try creating an html page based on the code from the original Thingiverse build, add it to the jffs2 partition, repack it into the FosIPC_A_app_ver2.x.1.6.bin, and upload it to the camera. What I'm not sure then is how to access the page. The new WebUI for these cameras doesn't allow you to just call up whatever html page you'd like.
I'm hoping that there's someone on this forum that could help me make the last few leaps on my project. If anyone can help me complete these final steps, I'd be happy to send you a rover of your own as a thank you. I'm a man of my word. See attached image of my build so far:

Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!
