Data input / camera 1

[stormbind]

Hi,

Which libraries might be geared towards capturing data from a camera, motion sensors, or custom HCI?

Thanks all

I don't know of any libraries specialised for this, Glen. It may be you'd have to use JNI to access the device-specific drivers for these.

It depends on how the devices are conected to the computer. There are libraries for some protocolos: serial, usb ...

Cheers,

We had a similar thread here; I think we decided TWAIN was the way to go (if that works for motion as well as stills) and there were library links...

Doesn't twain work just with scanners?

Thanks for your guidance. Which libraries would relate to using the USB protocol? * a little prayer on keeping life simple *

It will work with digital cameras too. What I wasn't sure about was motion vs. stills.
