AritroSaha10 / MMALCamera

Library for using MMAL to control and show the camera.

MMALCamera

C++ library for using MMAL (MultiMedia Abstraction Layer) to control a CSI camera on the Raspberry Pi.

Current Features

• Show a fullscreen preview to the screen solely using the GPU

Planned Features

• Fetching images
• Adjusting camera settings (ex. AWB, brightness, etc)

Compilation and Execution

cmake .
make
./MMALCameraSample

Usage as Library

Just import the two files MMALCamera.cpp and MMALCamera.h into your project and import it into your code using #include "MMALCamera.h".

Note

Since this uses VideoCore libraries that are only available on the RPi, it will likely be very difficult (if not impossible) to cross-compile from another machine.
