Add a Hires cam on VOXL CAM + TOF w/ Flight Controller
-
Hello,
I just get a VOXl Cam with TOF and voxl desk flight, which has a TOF, a stereo and a tracking camera. Can I attached a Hires cam on it, too? I need to take photos and i want to do it through the voxl system if possible

Hi Marian,
The voxl-cam can support the use of a hires camera, but the voxl board can only support 3 MIPI cameras at a time. So you could add a hires cam but it would be at the expense of either stereo or TOF. You can see the list of supported camera configurations here. However, If you want all 3 of the built ins and a hires cam, you can use an external camera attached via usb to the voxl and access it via voxl-uvc-server. Documentation of this process as well as some tested cameras can be found here.

Thank you for your answer!
I will keep the all three already installed on the voxl-cam and I will attach an external c270 firstly to test with it. Which USB port is recommended to use in this case?

It won't matter which port the camera is plugged into, If you don't have an expansion board/modem on your cam then the micro port is the only usb option, though it'll likely be more reliable in flight to use a manually crimped JST connection on an expansion board and avoid a micro connector.

Understood. Thank you again!
