Arduino Acquiring Images from Analog Camera

[cagell]

Hi All,

I worked for the last two weeks to make the arduino acquire simple low res images and send them to a PC.
The images come from an Analog Video Source (Any camera would do, NTSC is the only I tried).

Great project! Thank you for documenting this.

Do you have any recommendations for tiny cameras that would work well for this application? I have an application that would need to have the camera dimensions be about 1"H by 1"W and take pictures at 1" away from the subject.

Also, acquiring these images in one second is very impressive considering the hardware limitations of the Arduino. Nice work!
