A pseudo-logic analyzer

The victim - Alaris weeCam

The 'system' to connect between the camera and the PC
The connectors and cables that connect to the capturing circuit

General view of the circuit
Closeup of the memory chip that captured the control lines

Yep - below all those cables there are actually ICs!
Counter side (at the right) and the data storage chip

Another panoramic view
My old 'laptop' showing the captured data

And after several days of labor, the first image to be captured by a Linux program. The colors are still off, I didn't find out the correct relation for obtaining RGB from the camera's YUV.
