I decided to include an image sensor on the chipstar.

This will make it more exciting, because you will be able to see the earth, the moon and the sun.

An integrated algorithm will also provide data how fast and in which direction the seen object is moving.

The sensor is black&white with 20 pixel resolution in X/Y - not a high end camera, but you can print the earth´s image into the frequency spectrum and use it for navigation purposes.

I think that will be a motivation :)

Hi - I know this was a long time ago, but what was the part number of the image sensor you tried? Thanks!
