Intended for image handling functions.

The following camera-related plug-ins are available:

  • Camera control (camget, camset etc)
  • Image access (imageget, imageset) access to fresh images.
  • Image pool handling (poolget poollist etc.) pool of imege buffers with image handling functionality.
  • Guidemark detection (gmkget) giudemark 3D pose and code
  • Road outline plugin (pathget) polygon with road outline matching a seed area.
  • Sample plugin (center of gravity)

The following cameras are supported:

  • all USB cameras supported by the pwc (Philips Web Cam) driver, e.g.
  • - Philips 740K, 840K,
  • - Logitech Orbit
  • A few frame-grapper cards (I have not tried for a long time)
  • IEEE1394 DCI-standard
  • IEEE1394 DVI - not supported
  • palantir streaming video - not supported p.t.

To run the server

./ucamserver

It then shows a command prompt:

>>

To monitor images and results use the monitoring client UCLIENT or AUCLIENT (or the server console directly - or as a last resort TELNET)

See:

>> module list

For heneral help about the server and a list of all available commandes (from all plug-ins) use:

>> help

Each of the listed commands should have an on-line help function, e.g:

>> camset help
