Hi,

I have a Videre System MDCS Firewire camera which captures in FORMAT_2
Mode_2 1280*960 mono 8bpp . It seems that this format is not supported in
ARToolkit. I really need the high resolution so any help will be useful.

hi Dey,

ARToolKit should work with any resolution if you change the precompiler
settings to support that resolution. Per default these are set to a
lower resolution in order to save memory (memory management is not a
natural strength of ARToolKit...).

This topic has been discussed before. I'm sure you'll find a solution by
looking into the mailing list archive.

bye,
Daniel

look into arLabeling.c and change HARDCODED_BUFFER_WIDTH and
HARDCODED_BUFFER_HEIGHT from 1024x1024 to your resolution. there are
some other preprocessor definitions that determine how many pixels can
be processed per frame and marker but such a small resolution increase
should not require any other changes...

Actually, the default ARToolkit had some predefined constants for  
temporary buffers that limited the size of the images to  
1024x1024 ... look through the source, I think it's in the arLabeling  
source files.

Aside from some constants like that, I agree that it should work.
