camera1394
[Drivers]

The camera1394 driver captures images from IEEE1394 (Firewire, iLink) cameras.

Compile-time dependencies
  • libraw1394
  • libdc1394_control

Provides

Requires
  • none

Configuration requests
  • none

Configuration file options
  • port (integer)
    • Default: 0
    • The 1394 port the camera is attached to.

  • node (integer)
    • Default: 0
    • The node within the port

  • framerate (float)
    • Default: 15
    • Requested frame rate (frames/second)

  • mode (string)
    • Default: "640x480_yuv422"
    • Capture mode (size and color layour). Valid modes are:
      • "320x240_yuv422"
      • "640x480_mono"
      • "640x480_yuv422"
      • "640x480_rgb"
      • "800x600_mono"
      • "800x600_yuv422" - will be rescaled to 600x450
      • "1024x768_mono"
      • "1024x768_yuv422" - will be rescaled to 512x384
      • "1280x960_mono"
      • "1280x960_yuv422" - will be rescaled to 640x480
    • Currently, all mono modes will produce 8-bit monochrome images unless a color decoding option is provided (see bayer).
    • All yuv422 modes are converted to RGB24

  • force_raw (integer)
    • Default: 0
    • Force the driver to use (slow) memory capture instead of DMA transfer (for buggy 1394 drivers).

  • save (integer)
    • Default: 0
    • Debugging option: set this to write each frame as an image file on disk.

  • bayer (string)
    • Default: None.
    • Bayer color decoding options for cameras such as the Point Grey Dragonfly and Bummblebee. Option activates color decoding and specifies the Bayer color pattern. Valid modes are:
      • "BGGR"
      • "GRBG"
      • "RGGB"
      • "GBRG"

  • method (string)
    • Default: None (or "DownSample" if bayer option is specified)
    • Determines the algorithm used for Bayer coloro decoding. Valid modes are:
      • "DownSample"
      • "Nearest"
      • "Edge"

  • brightness (string or unsigned int)
    • Default: None
    • Sets the camera brightness setting. Valid modes are:
      • "auto"
      • any suitable unsigned integer

  • exposure (string or unsigned int)
    • Default: None
    • Sets the camera exposure setting. Valid modes are:
      • "auto"
      • any suitable unsigned integer

  • shutter (string or unsigned int)
    • Default: None
    • Sets the camera shutter setting. Valid modes are:
      • "auto"
      • any suitable unsigned integer

  • gain (string or unsigned int)
    • Default: None
    • Sets the camera gain setting. Valid modes are:
      • "auto"
      • any suitable unsigned integer

  • whitebalance (string)
    • Default: None
    • Sets the manual camera white balance setting. Only valid option:
      • a string containing two suitable blue and red value unsigned integers

  name "camera1394"
