光电鼠标改装成扫描仪

1、光电鼠标改装成扫描仪有没有想过光电鼠标也可以改装成扫描仪？其实这是可能的，光电鼠标里面有个CCD器件，虽然只有16x16 像素，但是移动鼠标时，就可以“扫描”一整片区域。有个国外的DIY狂人就做了这种改装。笔者也想试试这个新奇的想法，就吧鼠标拆了。结果发现不能成功。根本原因：人家用的是Agilent的光电鼠标传感器，但是我用的是OM02的。Agilent那颗有个I2C接口，连几根线到并口上，就可以用I2C接口读出里面的内容。OM02也有I2C接口，不过这个接口只能在test mode下使用，但是芯片资料上没有写出进入test模式的方 法。Front ViewSymbolIODescriptio

Ever wanted to see your desktop through the eye on the bottom of it? Me neither, I already know I have to clean my desktop :-)People get bored sometim

4、es, and when I get bored I sometimes open up stuff to find out what makes it tick. One time, I did this with an old optical mouse. Well, a mouse only has 2 chips inside: the optical sensor and a chip for the usb/ps2-interfacing. I looked up the datasheet of the optical sensor (which is an ADNS2610)

5、and it told me the sensor has a tiny 18x18 CCD, which can be read out using the serial port(the one which normallyinterfaces to the PS2/USB-chip).So I start Visual Basic (I usually do my stuff under Linux, but I,m no star at using anything graphical like QT or GTK, so for this quickndirty project I

6、fell back in my old habits) and hack something up using a few wires to the trusty ole parallel port. The result: crisp lo-res b&w imaging ：-)As you can see, the mouse was over some text with an e in it.One of the more obvious features of a mouse, however, is that it can detect movement. Combine this

7、 with the just-aquired imaging features, and we havea ghetto b&w handscanner. This is a scanned piece of a receipt:I can understand you can t wait to have such a handy scanner yourself. And now, you can! The software is downloadable here. The software works on mice which use an ADNS-2610 optical sen

8、sor, recognisable by the eight pins, the sun-like mark and the text A2610. I,ve seen this sensor in most cheap optical mice that arent too old. To hook it up, check out the pinout in the datasheeet, then on the PCB cut the traces running from the sensors SCK- and SDIO-pins to the rest of the mouse.

9、Then connect the sensor, using a diode, to a parallel port, like this:pp:adns-2610:25GND12+SDIO51| -+SCKPlug in the USB/PS2-plug (or apply 5V to the Vcc-pin of the sensor), run the software and you should be OK.I got a few questions about whether it would be possible to get the image from the USB or

10、 PS/2-port of the mouse, so you can view the image of an unmodified mouse. The answer is: In theory, it could be possible, if the microcontroller between the port and the sensor-IC supports some kind of pass-through-mode so you can use it to talk directly to the sensor. In practice though, I don,t k

11、now of any chip that supports that kind of mode, so the answer wouldhave to be: Nope, as far as I know, it cant be done.By the way, if you search for datasheets, it seems that Agilent has spun off their optical division to a new company called Avage ( HYPERLINK /pages/home/ /pages/home/).Mails about

12、 thisJoshua Wise mailed me about an optical sensor chip with A2050 on it. Seems the chip is compatible with the A2051, which in itself isnt directly compatible with the ADNS2610, but the basic idea of reading the pixels of the CCD is the same. Joshua created a program for Linux to read out the senso

13、r. Another note: Some mice have the Vcc of the sensor switched by the microcontroller; if you try this hack with such a mouse youll need to connect the Vcc directly to the sensor chip.Carsten Gross mailed me:Hi,Im working on an university project and Im using your webpage as base for my idea to use

14、an optical mouse as motion sensor for a model car.I removed the original optics of the mouse and replaced it with a lens with f=4,6 mm. To check wether the image of the world (as seen by the mouse sensor) is focussed Im using a modified Linux version of the software downloadable on your page: as my

15、mouse has a ADNS-2610 (and not one of the older chips).Please see the attachmentfor a modifiedversionof the softwareby Joshua Wise now running with the ADNS-2610 and Linux.Using the different optics the focus is now near infinity. This way the sensor can be mounted at a safe place in the model car.

16、Perhaps it is necessary to add specles on the floor ;-) The source of the software is downloadable here.He mailed me a second time:Im the meantime we built our own board with the sensor chip here and use it as movement and direction detector.Please see this for the images of the sensor board and the

19、es, that would probably be possible, but one would need the right software for that, and Im not interested in writing it.

24、hen you request the raw image it doesn,t just store the current image and send it to you, it actually sends you the first pixel of the first image then the second pixel of the next image and so on and so forth. what this means is that its 182 times slower than the actual frame rate which is seen by
