The StikClik Webcam

StikClik is (literally) a toy webcam. It is uses Mattel's $20 NickClick(TM) digital camera, and Dallas SemiConductor's $50 TINI(TM) board, which is a Java(TM) microcontroller.

I wrote it as an exercise in learning to program the TINI, inspired by a Circuit Cellar article. I learned a lot about the TINI.

The Java code that's available here implements a functional web server that delivers PNG images generated from the camera's raster format. All the image processing is performed on the TINI (which is quite a struggle).
