Acquire with two camera's to one image??

Here is my configuration:
Windows 2000
PII 866
512mb ram
1) Imaq PCI-1409
1) Imaq-A6822
2) JAI CV-M50 camera's
2) Pentex C60607 lens'
I would like to snap an image with both cameras and combine the two to make one image. The part will not be moving and time is not critical. The camera's will be mounted 3.8' above the part which will give me about a 3' square area for each camera. So basically I would like to end up with one image approx. 3' X 6'. How is the best way to go about doing this? Or is it even possible?

It all depends on how accurately you want the images to be joined.
If you just want to display them as a single image, it is very easy. IMAQ ImageToImage will paste one image into another.
If you want to seamlessly join them together, and do it accurately enough for measurements or feature detection, it is a lot more difficult. It is impossible to rotate and align the cameras so that two images can be pasted together accurately without manipulation of the images. You will need some mapping tools and figure out how to rotate and align the second image with the first. You will need a small portion of the images to overlap so they can be matched up. You may need to map both images to eliminate distortion first. If your part has a noticeable thickness
variations, you will get different perspectives for the two images.

    I have a video made with two cameras, in two tracks. Sometimes only one camera is running (because they both turn off at certain clip lengths). I'm trying to cut them together using the multicamera window, but I get no audio from track 2. How can I get audio from track 2. (My kludge is to cut the original audio from track 2 and move it into track 1.)

    Good Grief!  Now that I know the answer, I can find it all over the place.  But before, I got so many google references that just told me it couldn't be done!  That made me think the answer must be obscure -- when it was really simple, and should have been obvious to me.
    The lesson seems to be: do more work looking around the panels and menus of the program itself before trying to look in "help" or "google".
    Thanks, again, Jerry, for your consideration.

  • Can i shoot tethered with two cameras?

    I've read that I can shoot tethered with two cameras in Adobe Photoshop Lightroom. When I tether them to my iMac 27", one will work. Then I switch cameras in the "shooting module" to the other body (both bodies are Nikon D800) and then it freezes up. Do they need to be named differently? Is that even possible. Your help is greatly appreciated.

    Canon supports two camera attachment for tethering.
    Nikon does not.
    Tethered camera support in Lightroom
    Notes on Nikon cameras
    For all Nikon cameras:
    If you trigger the shutter with the tether bar capture button, the image must finish downloading before another photo can be captured. Triggering a capture with the shutter release button on the camera does not have this limitation.
    Images do not save to the compact flash card. They are only downloaded to the computer.
    Only one Nikon camera can be attached at a time.

  • On holidays we took pictures with two cameras and an iPad. I put everithing on my PC. Rearranged them by date, time and or subject putting a number in front of the picture name. I synchronised with my iPad and my pictures show in misselaneous order. Help

    We took pictures during oue holidays with two cameras and an iPad. I put all the pictures on my PC and reorganized them by date, time and/or subject, By putting a number in front of the picture name. Then I synced with my iPad. All the pictures show in a misselaneous order. What went or did I wrong?

    You did nothing wrong, but the photo app puts stuff in chronological order.
    You can look for another app. Afraid I don't have one to suggest, but I do understand that other apps will sort photos differently.

    Never override the paint(...) method of a Swing component.
    If you have a sub image then add the image to a JLabel and add the label to the GUI. No need for custom painting.

  • Working with two cams

    I have shots from two cams which I am preparing to capture into Adobe Premiere.
    I know there's a way to work with two cams-monitoring, but is it the case when capturing ?
    I am capturing via Firewire.  My card has more than one slot - so guess I can plug-in two cams at same time.  But can I A/B between the two cams prior to capture (record) into Adobe ?
    Or is the multiple cam into Adobe only for ''already captured'' shots ?
    Thanks,
    Rob

    You need to capture the data streams separately (not simultaneously)

  • Is possible to take the Infopath form with two repeat section in one SharePoint list

    Is possible to take the Infopath form  with two repeat section in one Sharepoint list 
    Take two repeat section and put them one bellow to other one in a SP list.
    The motive is that the first repeat section is based in account own by the requestor and the second repeat section is when the requestor is doing backup time for some one else where need to log the amount of time that spend in the peer account.
    I have basic logic in the form when requestor said Are you doing backup for some else? and press YES it is be able to use the second repeat section.

  • I can't comunicate with two fieldpoint chains from one pc

    I have two separate labview programs which use different serial ports (com8 & com9) to communicate with two separate sets of fieldpoint hardware. Each works fine on it's own. When I run both from the same PC, the second to start always receives a 'Can't bind to com port' error from the FP create tag.vi. Both programs are using different .iak files which only reference their own com port.

    The FieldPoint Server, which is launched wheen you run the FP Open.vi can only have on instance running in memory. You can not have multiple servers running simultaneously, which is what your programs are attempting to do. Merge both IAK's into a single IAK that each program will access. Each Comm Resource (one for Com8 and one for Com 9) should be given a unique name.

  • Problems syncing photos with two user accounts on one Macbook pro in iPhoto

    Hi, I hope someone can help. I've have a Macbook Pro with two user accounts, my wife and myself. My wife and I both have our own iPhones. We log onto our own accounts and sync perfectly with itunes - so far so good.
    The only issue is we have a shared iphoto 'database'. When each of us go into iPhoto we're looking at the same photo library (i.e we can both see the same photos, events, etc), although we make sure we don't both go in at the same time as I've heard this can cause issues.
    In iTunes if I sync photos from iPhoto to my iPhone it works fine. If I then log out and my wife logs in and tries the same she gets a permissions error. We've worked round this by deleting the photo cache folder, however if this is done on my wifes account, for example and then she logs out, when I log in I get the same permissions error until I delete the photo cache myself - and round and round we go.
    Is there a way that we can setup iPhoto and/or iTunes so we can both sync with iPhoto to our own iPhomes? If its means me 'owning' the iPhoto database and my wife having some sort of read access/view only access, that would be fine.
    We're using the latest version of iTunes (9.2.1) and the iPhone OS (4.0.2) and Snow Leopard (10.6.4)

    Yes I moved the iphoto library to a mounted volume, as suggested in the apple support pages, and it works fine now.
    I also made sure the volume was mounted at log on automatically. The only downside is that I have to make sure may wife doesn't log on and use iphoto whilst I am logged on.

  • With two cursors on just one waveform graph, how can I acquire the X values of each cursor to use them in other functions?

    I can get the x values of each function to display on the front panel with no problems, but I have not been able to acquire this information from the front panel.

    You use a property node to programtically retrieve the cursor values. For each cursor, first use the property Active Cursor to select (0 for the first and 1 for the second) and then the property Cursor Position:Cursor X. See the attachment.

  • Two cameras, but only one works at a time, need help

    I've gone over the messages here but not found any answers to my type of problem.  I have two WVC54GCAs both have static IPs on my lan and I can view them both fine from there. 
    I forwarded the port for one to 47624 and the other to 47625 in my router at home and in the camera configuration I specified to use these alternate ports instead of the default 80 port.  When I get in to work and try to view them over the internet by their ip address and port# (e.g. http://22.22.22.222:47624) I get a timeout error, but I can see one if I go to port 22.22.22.222:80 (even though the port I specified in the camera setup was an alternate port).  I used dyndns open port testing tool (http://www.dyndns.com/support/tools/openport.html) which shows 47624 and 47625 are both open ok. 
    I can log into my router on 22.22.22.222:8080 from work and the router logs show that the dyndns tool connected to the router via these ports upon testing.  I was using a Netgear router and thought that might be the problem, so went out and got a Linksys wRT54G2 router to see if that worked better, but have the same issue as with the Netgear.  Here's the weird part, if I go into the router from work and change one of the cameras to forward to port 80 instead of the alternate port I'd set for it, I can view that camera on port 80 despite the camera config still set to use an alternate port.  So then when I take the first camera off port 80 in my router and change the second one to port 80, I can view the second one as well that way.  I have Comcast as my ISP and a Motorola SB5100 cable modem and can't figure out why I am unable to bring them up over the internet using the alternate port settings I specified.  I've spent a lot of time on this, I'd really appreciate any help or other suggestions on what to do.

    As far as I know, all Comcast modems are just bridges...no firewalls in them at all.... The other possibility is that your IT dept at work is blocking the traffic...have you tried this from any other place outside your LAN?
