Receive image from two web-camera​s
Hallo all.
I have LV 7.1.1
I have two web-cameras which are connected to USB1 & USB2.
How can I see two images from two web-cameras or more in LV at the same time?
With respect
Aleksandr

Aleksandr,
The IMAQ for USB driver communicates to the 3rd party camera driver using Directshow. There is an IMAQ USB Property Page VI available in LabVIEW that gives you the ability to open the camera configuration page of the 3rd party camera provided that there is one available. Depending on the vendor, you may or may not have access to change the resolution of your camera through this property page. I would contact the manufacturer of the camera to find out if there is a way to do this.
In case you are curious to know where to find the IMAQ USB Property Page VI, right-click on the block diagram and go to Search in the upper right corner of the palette. Search for "IMAQ USB Property Page" and the corresponding VI will show up in the list below it.

Problem in grabing images from two web cams
Hi
I am trying to modify single web cam capturing screen code into multiple web cam screen capturing. The method autoDetect() recognizes the web camera. I want to choose web cam by myself. I tried all devInfo from the list but it resulted no success. Always the first camera is selected . I use different cameras (Logitech and Genius). Please, how to detect both camera to work at the same time.
public CaptureDeviceInfo autoDetect ( )
Vector list = CaptureDeviceManager.getDeviceList (null);
CaptureDeviceInfo devInfo = null;
if ( list != null )
String name;
for ( int i=0; i<list.size(); i++ )
devInfo = (CaptureDeviceInfo)list.elementAt ( i );
name = devInfo.getName();
if ( name.startsWith ("vfw:") )
break;
...The whole code is on: JWebCamHere's source code I posted to capture a frame from one webcam.
http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jspa?threadID=570463&tstart=25
Lots of people have problems with multiple cameras, something to do with the
Windows USB channels and failing to detect/select between the two.
So, capturing frames from 1 web cam is relatively straightforward, but you may have serious problems with two or more.

Capturing images from two web camera in real time
Hi,
I need to compare two pictures from two webcameras. I will make some easy computing on them, so there should be no speed problem, but i dont know how can i take each picture? is there any action which is called each time a frame comes? do sb have some sample code?
thanks

Lightroom not merging and sorting images from two different cameras - help please !!
Hi guys,
I need some help here. I've just imported a few thousands of images form two different cameras, however Lightroom simply sorts them by camera only. (i.e.. images from the first camera, all sorted by capture time, then come images form the second camera.)
The cameras are the same brand and model, times are synchronised, but the images refuse to merge and sort. I've tried putting them in the same folder and importing, but that doesn't do it either. I've been doing this for years and it all worked fine, till today. Does anyone know whats causing this, and how I can fix it?
Thanks in anticipation.
LatchHi John,
View > Sort > Capture Time is checked, The cameras are in sync down to the second, and images from both have been merging and sorting fine for over two years, till today. Sort order is all set to capture time in all modes and views, but its still sorting first by camera. -
Capture an image using the web camera from a web application
Hi All,
Could anyone please share the steps what have to be followed for capture an image using the web camera from a web application.
I have a similar requirement like this,
1) Detect the Webcam on the users machine from the web application.(To be more clear when the user clicks on 'Add Photo' tool from the web application)
2) When the user confirms to save, save the Image in users machine at some temporary location with some unique file name.
3) Upload the Image to the server from the temporary location.
Please share the details like, what can be used and how it can be used etc...
Thanks,
Suman1) Detect the Webcam on the users machine from the web application.(To be more clear when the user clicks on 'Add Photo' tool from the web application)There's not really any good way to do this with JMF. You'd have to somehow create a JMF web-start application that will install the native JMF binaries, and then kick off the capture device scanning code from the application, and then scan through the list of devices found to get the MediaLocator of the web cam.
2) When the user confirms to save, save the Image in users machine at some temporary location with some unique file name.You'd probably be displaying a "preview" window and then you'd just want to capture the image. There are a handful of ways you could capture the image, but it really depends on your situation.
3) Upload the Image to the server from the temporary location.You can find out how to do this on google.
All things told, this application is probably more suited to be a FMJ (Freedom for Media in Java) application than a JMF application. JMF relies on native code to capture from the web cams, whereas FMJ does not.
Alternately, you might want to look into Adobe Flex for this particular application. -
---BACKGROUND---
We have very little experience with programming for the LabView, but good experience with programming in general.
---SETUP---
In one end we have the newest LabView (8?) that is connected to several OPC driven PLSes.
In the other end we have a piece of custom hardware that grabs images from several analog cameras (surveillance machine)
We need to send the image from the surveillance machine to the labview
software as easily as possible. We have access to the sourcecode for
the surveillance machine to writing a custom protocol to send images is
no problem, the problem is the labview end.
My question is if there is a way to make labview connect to a machine
and download images from it, the exact protocol is no problem since we
can customize the hardware completly, a llI need is a connection where
images come streaming to it.
If not then maybe there is a way to program the labview to do the following;
Connect to a machine on the internet
Send commands to the connected machine
Receives images in a loop until connection is broken
Hope anyone got any clues as to what I am trying to accomplish here.
Thanks in advance

Here is my code, along with the C# example code from the vendor.
FYI the sample code from the vendor did not work on the customers machine either, just showed a black screen. I installed VS2010 Express C#.NET on the machine to test if I could grab images from the vendors example and no joy....didnt work.

When someone other than myself downloads an image from my web album, a dynamically generated file name replaces the original file name. How I can prevent the file name being changed during this downloading process?
Hi Glenyse,
Here are my steps.
1. I upload multiple image (jpg) files onto my photo album.
2. I select the "sharing" by email option for this album.
3. I enter the recipient's email address.
4. The recipient receives my message and clicks on the link.
5. The recipient accesses my photo album and clicks on one of the images.
6. The image opens up to its own screen.
7. The recipient selects the "download" and then save file option.
Here is the part I do not understand. For some reason, during this "download" process, the original name which I have given to the file is replaced by different name. So I was hoping that someone knows how to prevent the file name from being changed during the "download and save" process.
Much appreciated if you can help me find a solution to this problem.

I would like to import two different cf cards from two different cameras into the same project/folder and have them be in the order of the times they were taken, any ideas on how to do this?
Just import them normally and sort the project by date. They will fall into place. If you tried this and it isn;t happening then make sure the data and times on the two cameras are identical and make sure you are sorting by date and time and nothing else.

Photos won't import images from my Canon camera. When connected, program sees the images, tells me it will import the new ones, then freezes once import starts, not allowing any other operation to happen. MacbookPro 15" 2012, OSX Yosemite 10.10.3. Any suggestions?
Solution discovered. Faulty connector cable. Tried a different one and it worked.

When I copy an image from the web and paste it in AI the URL is inserted and not the image. How do I change that?
I understand the rights issue and I am complying to any rights issue. The issue that I am having is at home I can copy and paste an image in to AI from the web but at work I cannot do the same thing. It is an extra step that I am not use to. I know it is some sort of setting I just cannot find.
For example, if you look up "tigers" on Google, take the first image of tiger and paste it in AI are you able to do it?
When I do this I get the below text instead of the image:
http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/1/17/Tiger_in_Ranthambhore.jpg
Any help will be greatly appreciated, I use a ton of images from my factories that I need to use for my job. -

After a brief bit of research, you're definitely hitting upon the limitation of the browsers. Not all of the browsers have implemented this part of the HTML5 standard, so you're going to either have to use Flash or be limited to these specific browsers.
