Easy way to communicate with the camera using this OpenCV patch in c++

OpenCV: Open Source Computer Vision Library

Videoio Module

• This Videoio Module can be supported for Opencv version 4.5.5 with both Linux and Windows OS.

APIs Introduced

• bool getDevices(int &devices);
• bool getDeviceInfo(int device, String &deviceName, String &vid, String &pid, String &devicePath);
• bool getFormats(int &formats);
• bool getFormatType(int format, String &formatType, int &width, int &height, int &fps);
• bool setFormatType(int format)
• bool get(int propId, int &min, int &max, int &steppingDelta, int &supportedMode, int &currentValue, int &currentMode, int &defaultValue);
• bool set(int propId, int value, int mode);

APIs Explanation

bool getDevices(int &devices);

• Get total number of camera devices connected to the port.

bool getDeviceInfo(int device, String &deviceName, String &vid, String &pid, String &devicePath);

• Get specific camera device information such Device name, Device path, VendorID and productID.

bool getFormats(int &formats);

• Get total number of video formats supported by the camera device.

bool getFormatType(int format, String &formatType, int &width, int &height, int &fps);

• Get video resolution, video format and fps supported by the camera

bool setFormatType(int format);

• Set the video format, resolution and fps to the device.

bool get(int propId, int &min, int &max, int &steppingDelta, int &supportedMode, int &currentValue, int &currentMode, int &defaultValue);

• Get specific UVC Property(Brightness, Contrast,...) minimum value, maximum value, current value, default value, steppingDelta, current mode and supported mode.

bool set(int propId, int value, int mode);

• Set specific UVC Property(Brightness, Contrast, Hue,...) value and mode.

Y8GrabberFilter

• The Y8GrabberFilter Transform Filter is to grab the Y8 Frames as SampleGrabber. The SampleGrabber Input Pin does not accept the Y8 Format.

PythonScript

• Python Script can be used to access the UVC settings, HID settings, Streaming and Image capture of any e-con System cameras in both Windows and Linux.

OpenCVCam Command Line Application

• OpenCVCam command line application can be used to access the UVC settings, HID settings, Streaming and Image capture of any e-con System cameras in both Windows and Linux.

How to Use

• OpenCV can be downloaded from here

	$ cd opencv

	$ git checkout <opencv version>
