Video-cameras... more than one?
« on: Nov 10th, 2003, 2:51am » |

Would it be possible to get access to multiple camera's?
I am thinking something like creating multiple video-objects (from multiple - physical - video/web cameras) which you can access seperatly.
(say, one for tracking infra-red movement, and one for displaying live video-feed).
Please 
Mikkel

are you ready to switch to pure java programming (e.g. eclipse and quicktime for java)
i'm not sure if quicktime enables to access multiple video-in devices at a time (makes sense actually), but from what i've experienced from now with "pure java programming" and qt: it's really feasible to "fly-by-oneself", and less complicated than what it sounds...

Glen pointed this one out a while ago, and we haven't had to use it in a while (since video support became part of p5). but it might allow you to access mutliple cameras within p5.

ideally this would be a feature of the new video classes when they get broken out of p5. i'll keep it in mind when i do the next rev of the video stuff.
i think that qtjava has the ability to do this, however it might involve something clunky, like bringing up a native dialog to select each of the cameras individually. but i don't actually know offhand.
