| Subject: | FireWire / USB 2.0 ???? | ||
Hello We´re using a Webcam with 320x240. It is difficult to get the Patterns which are not directly at the camera.So we´re thinking of a new cam... Can somebody tell me, if it is possible to use a FireWire or USB 2.0 Camcorder with the ARToolkit for win???? What problems are expecting me, if I try to use them???? Would be great if somebody could give hints and tips which cameras are working good, which make problems! Any suggestion would be great! Thanks a lot nice greetings Volker |

Any hints would be great! But I think that - at least - the USB2.0 cams should work seamlessly with ARtoolkit (under windows!). Due to the use of the DirectX-, DirectShow-components ANY camera is handled the same. (Svideo-capture-device or USB1.1 cams work the same on my machine.) Only the frame-size differs. This can of course easilly adjusted in ARtoolkit. Am I right? Hope so, because I wanted to order an "Adstech USB Turbo 2.0 WebCam 'usbx-2020'". greetz, tobias kammann. -- - www.augmented.org -- www.footfighters.de - - My life for Aiur... uh, I mean Ner'zhul! - |
