Hi,
Recently, purchased a MarineSitu C3 Stereo Camera and installed it on Bluerov2. Trying to use Oak Viewer App AI feature to view camera output, but encountering connection issue related to low bandwidth.

Hi @Mark_01, welcome to the forum ![]()
Have you tried the recommended software integrations for use on a vehicle?
While the underlying OAK camera hardware can be used with general OAK-related software, that software is made with various assumptions in mind that may not apply to in-vehicle contexts, so not every feature or option is guaranteed to be available as a result. If your use-case requires a specific functionality then you may need to find some other way to enable it, either by running it locally (from the onboard computer) or by upgrading your bandwidth (e.g. with a shorter tether, or more advanced communications / tether interface technology) to meet the feature’s requirements.
Hi @Mark_01 -
The C3 camera can be configured to output more data than a typical Fathom-X tether link can handle - or even a 100Mbit standard ethernet link! I’d suggest lowering the resolution and frame rate of your streams with Madrona, or the Oak Viewer App to get things working. 24 Mbit is a bit low in general - how long of a tether are you working with?
@Mark_01 thank you for purchasing our product! I’m the maintainer of the Madrona software application for the C3 camera. We have made sure that the default settings for both CockpitColor and CockpitViewer profiles in Madrona will be compatible with the base ROV2 buildkit’s bandwidth capacity. A quickstart guide is avaliable here: Quick Start - Madrona User Documentation
