Webcam Capturing Component
-
Hello again. I'm back with another random and mostly useless request; anyone have or know of a component for VB.Net that captures feed from a webcam (through a USB port if you need to know)? I'm thinking it would be a window within the form, like the browser control, and the video would play on it. If there is no such component, then I could use some source code (maybe I'll code my own component :D). Thanks for the help! As I sit here, I contemplate the last words of Socrates: "I drank what?".

Go to the site of the webcam's company and see if they have a developer site or an SDK. Logitech's is http://developer.logitech.com[^]. You can fill out a small survey, then download the SDK which will come with the stuff you want. RageInTheMachine9532

Mine's actually an Intel, but I'll check out their developer site. Thanks for the help! As I sit here, I contemplate the last words of Socrates: "I drank what?".

Ewwww... Intel doesn't have an SDK for their cameras. What they do have is links to an Open Source, on SourceForge, Computer Vision project called OpenCV. They also direct you to use Microsoft's DirectX, Video for Windows SDK, and Device Driver SDK. That's one of the reasons why I didn't pick Intel's hardware for a webcam. RageInTheMachine9532

Blarg... figures. Heh. Well, I was planning on getting a new one at some point anyway, and when I am, I'll take that into consideration (i.e. I'll never get an Intel again). Thanks again for the input! As I sit here, I contemplate the last words of Socrates: "I drank what?".
