I haven't found any that work well.

I also haven't bothered with things like the Grabee because analog 
cameras are interlaced;  the video just doesn't look as good.

Dear all,

Does anyone have a usb2 camera that they are happy with for the AR Toolkit?

I have heard nothing but dissapointment from most people so far. I'm hoping
to start using one soon and wondering what to buy.

I have use the GrabeeX usb2 frame-grabber with some success, but not with
the ARToolkit so far (haven't had a chance to try it yet) I am hoping for it
to be a cheap way to re-cycle all thos analog cameras everyone abandoned
when firewire came along. :)

talking about usb2 cams, i'm quite happy with the Trust 380 SpaceCam.
it is cheap, gives 640x480 at 30fps, has a rather low distortion and the 
image quality is quite good.
for 40€ it's a good value...

hi there,

we're using the vrmagic  VRmC-3 . its small and can deliver 640x480 with up to 48 hz 
non interlaced.
see http://www.vrmagic.com/vrmtech/camera/vrmc3_e.html for details.
its not that cheap i think about 350 EUR. 

greetings from

Michael
